TORQUE-ARM II BELT GUARD
INSTALLATION
Two different belt guards are available for the Torque-Arm
II speed reducer. One belt guard assembly is designed for
mounting in position "B" and the other belt guard assembly is
designed for mounting in position "C" as shown in Figure 12. It is
important that the mounting position of the Torque-Arm II motor
mount be determined prior to purchase of the belt guard as these
two guards do not interchange and will be attached to the motor
mount uprights.
WARNING: To ensure that drive is not unexpectedly started,
turn off and lock out or tag power source before proceeding.
Remove all external loads from drive before removing or
servicing drive or accessories. Failure to observe these
precautions could result in bodily injury.
WARNING: Ensure that all guards are properly installed
before proceeding. Exercise extreme care to avoid
contacting rotating parts. Failure to observe these
precautions could result in bodily injury.
