tension. This will result in a different fan speed than desired.

1. Loosen motor plate adjustment nuts on L-bolts and

move motor plate in order that the belts can easily slip
into the grooves on the pulleys. Never pry, roll, or force
the belts over the rim of the pulley.

2. Slide the motor plate back until proper tension is

reached. For proper tension a deflection of
approximately 1/4” per foot of center distance should
be obtained by firmly pressing the belt. Refer to
Figure 3.

3. Lock the motor plate adjustment nuts in place.
4. Ensure pulleys are properly aligned. Refer to Figure 4.

Pulley Alignment

Pulley alignment is adjusted by

loosening the motor pulley setscrew and
by moving the motor pulley on the motor
shaft.

Figure 4 indicates where to measure

the allowable gap for the drive
alignment tolerance. All contact points
(indicated by WXYZ) are to have a gap
less than the tolerance shown in the
table. When the pulleys are not the
same width, the allowable gap must be adjusted by half of
the difference in width (As shown in A & B of Figure 4).
Figure 5 illustrates using a carpenter’s square to adjust the
position of the motor pulley until the belt is parallel to the
longer leg of the square.

Final Installation Steps

1. Inspect fasteners and setscrews, particularly fan

mounting and bearing fasteners, and tighten according
to the recommended torque shown in the following
table.

2. Inspect for correct voltage with voltmeter.
3. Ensure all accessories are installed.

Wiring Installation

NOTICE! All wiring should be in accordance with
local ordinances and the National Electrical
Code, NFPA 70. Ensure the power supply
(voltage, frequency, and current carrying
capacity of wires) is in accordance with the
motor nameplate.

(See page 5 for diagram)

Leave enough slack in the wiring to allow for motor

movement when adjusting belt tension. Some fractional
motors have to be removed in order to make the connection
with the terminal box at the end of the motor. To remove
motor, remove bolts securing motor base to power
assembly. Do not remove motor mounting bolts.

Units with Arrangement 10 have a hole provided at the

base of the bearing pedestal to accommodate wiring.

Follow the wiring diagram in the disconnect switch and

the wiring diagram provided with the motor. Correctly label
the circuit on the main power box and always identify a
closed switch to promote safety (i.e., red tape over a closed
switch).

Wheel Rotation

Test the fan to ensure the

rotation of the wheel is the
same as indicated by
the arrow marked
Rotation.

For 115 and 230

Single Phase Motors:
Fan wheel rotation is set
correctly at the factory. Changing the rotation of this type of
motor should only be attempted by a qualified electrician.

For 208, 230, and 460, 3 Phase Motors: These motors

are electrically reversible by switching two of the supply
leads. For this reason, the rotation of the fan cannot be
restricted to one direction at the factory. See Wiring
Diagrams above for specific information on reversing wheel
direction.

NOTICE! Do not allow the fan to run in the wrong

direction. This will overheat the motor and cause
serious damage. For 3-phase motors, if the fan is
running in the wrong direction, check the control
switch. It is possible to interchange two leads at this
location so that the fan is operating in the correct
direction.

Belt and Pulley Installation

Belt tension is determined by the sound the belts make

when the fan is first started. Belts will produce a loud squeal
which dissipates after the fan is operating at full capacity. If
the belt tension is too tight or too loose, lost efficiency and
possible damage can occur.

Do not change the pulley pitch diameter to change
