Attaching the A8AA54 Narrow Mounting Base
The A8AA54, 1/2 inch (13mm) wide, narrow bracket was developed for small
machines with shaft diameters of 4 - 1/2 inches (114 mm) and below, where the
shaft can be rotated freely. Top and bottom v-shaped bars clamp snugly around the
shaft. All is held in place by any one of three fasteners: wing nuts for easy tightening,
hexagonal nuts for easy tightening in close quarters or a 1/2 inch (13mm) cou-
pling nut for especially tight spaces. The bolts are hinged and can swing freely. A
cotter pin can be inserted into the bracket to prevent the bolt from swinging.

Place the top v-shaped bar section (base) of the bracket on the shaft and the
bottom v-shaped bar section of the bracket on the shaft (on the opposite side of the
shaft from where the top v-shaped bar section has been placed) to secure the
bracket to the shaft. Ensure that the bolts are seated in the outer most slots of the
bottom section. When the top and bottom v-shaped bar bracket sections and bolts
are in place, tighten the nut at the end of the bolt to clamp the bracket to the shaft.
