Fan Drive Adjustments
Before servicing fans, lock out and tag out all power to the
unit . Fans or belts can cause severe personal injury or death .
Do not open the hinged access door and screw-fastenerd
access panels while the unit is operating. Moving parts and
strong suction forces can cause severe personal injury or
death .
Upon completion of the air balance, replace the variable
pitched motor sheave with a properly sized, fixed sheave. A
matching fixed sheave provides longer belt and bearing life
and minimizes vibration . Initially, it is best to have a variable
pitched motor sheave for the purpose of air balancing . Once
the balance is achieved, fixed sheaves maintain balancing and
alignment more effectively . Replace the adjustable sheaves
with fixed sheaves.
With the electrical power disconnected, locked and tagged
out, measure the diameter of the V-belt outer surface where
it passes around the sheave (pitch diameter) . Calculate fan
speed from the motor nameplate rpm .

Mounting:
NLGI
Grade
1 . Mount all sheaves on the motor or driving shaft with the
2 setscrews A toward the motor.
2 . Verify that both driving and driven sheaves are in
2
alignment and that shafts are parallel .

3 . Fit internal key D between sheave and shaft and lock
setscrew A securely in place .

Adjusting:
2
1 . Loosen setscrews B and C in moving parts of sheave
and pull out external key E . (This key projects a small
amount to provide a grip for removing .)
2 . To adjust sheave pitch diameter for desired speed, open
moving parts by half or full turns from closed position . Do
not open more than five full turns for A belts or six
full turns for B belts .
3 . Replace external key E and securely tighten setscrews B
over key and setscrews C into keyway in fixed half of the
sheave .
4 . Put on belts and adjust tension . Do not force belts over
grooves . See
5 . Make future adjustments by loosening the belt tension
and increasing or decreasing the pitch diameter of the
sheave by half or full turns as required . Readjust belt
tension before starting drive .
6 . To provide the same pitch diameter, adjust both halves
of the two-groove sheaves by the same number of turns
from closed position .
7 . Verify that all keys are in place and that all se screws
are tight before starting drive. Check setscrews and belt
tension after 24 hours service .
