Install the Replacement Slinger
1. Install a threaded rod and nut in the shaft alignment hole.
The table below lists the diameter and threading of alignment holes, and a recommended
rod length for each motor.
2. Tighten the nut on the threaded rod against the end of the motor shaft.
This prevents the threaded rod from backing out of the motor shaft during this
removal/installation procedure.
3. Position the slinger squarely on the end of the motor shaft.
4. Place a deep well socket, a larger washer, and a nut on the threaded rod.
Use a socket larger than the shaft diameter to provide sufficient clearance between the
inside surface of the socket and the motor shaft. The table below lists shaft diameters for
various motor sizes.
5. Tighten the nut to force the washer, socket, and slinger down the shaft.
If additional travel is required to seat the slinger, add a section of hollow pipe or a similar
item behind the socket.
6. Stop moving the slinger down the shaft approximately 3 mm (0.125 in.) before the
slinger contacts the mounting surface of the motor.
