Appendix #6 – Nord Drive Installation Procedure
The Precision PMR feeder, the Nord drive package, and the Precision mounting bracket are all heavy and
should be lifted and positioned using proper techniques and equipment to assure the safety of personnel
working on the installation.
The Nord drive should have been ordered with mounting hardware that comes in a small box and
will contain two (2) rubber bumpers, a bolt, a "fixing element" that looks like a large washer with
a counter-bore in it, and one or more shaft keys.
Step
Install the Precision mounting bracket on to the side of the feeder housing – at
1
this point use only four bolts (one in each corner of the mounting bracket) and
tighten only enough to hold the mounting bracket in place for further
alignment.
Step
Check to make sure that there is a snap ring already installed inside the bore
2
of the gearbox – on larger Nord gearboxes, the snap ring is factory-installed by
Nord. If it is not pre-installed, contact Precision for instructions.
Step
Coat the feeder driveshaft with a thin film of a "never-seize" product and
3
install the key(s) in the keyway on the feeder driveshaft.
