Removing The Motor - Pressure Seal PS 100 Manual

Removing the motor

1. Press the PS100's power switch to the off position and then unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet.
2. Remove the top cover, right and left side covers, infeed and outfeed panels.
3. Grasp the tie bar above the feed table and tip the machine onto its outfeed end.
Be careful, the unit is heavy!
4. Remove the four socket head screws that secure the baseplate to the PS100's
frame. Remove the baseplate.
5. Remove the motor chain, motor sprocket, sealer sprocket and sealer chain.
6. Locate the four screws that secure the motor mount to PS100's chassis (two per
side). Note where the screws are positioned with respect to the mounting slots.
Also note how the motor wiring is routed near the motor. You'll need this
information when reinstalling the motor.
7. While supporting the motor, remove the eight screws. Remove the motor and
mounting bar as a unit.
8. At this point the motor is still attached to the machine by the motor cable. Trace
the motor cable and remove any cable clamps that secure the motor cable to the
machine.
9. Note colour and location of wires, and then disconnect the motor cable to
completely remove the motor.
10. Remove the four screws that secure the motor to the motor mounting bar.
To replace the motor, complete the steps of this procedure in reverse order. Ensure
you:
• Route the motor wiring the way it was routed prior to removing the motor.
• Position the four motor mounting screws in the same location in the mounting
slots. This will provide proper tension on the drive chains.
