PNEG-681 Series II Bucket Elevator

Torque Arm

1. Place the torque arm tube assembly on the head section by sliding the two (2) gussets of the torque

arm assembly between the head bearing angles.

2. Make sure the locking bolts face away from the head section.

3. Attach with the proper hardware.

(See Figure 11D and

Figure 11E.)

NOTE: On 16" and 24" elevators, the torque arm tube will slide in and out freely with the motor’s torque

causing a positive lock situation.

NOTE: In 30" and large elevators, loosen the three (3) locking bolts and place the torque arm foot

mounting tube in the torque arm assembly such that the foot mounting bracket is to the side in
which the reducer will be mounted. Wait until the reducer is set on the shaft to re-tighten the
locking bolts.
