Optional Shaft Kit Installation Instructions | 25
Install Shaft Housing
1. Assemble one of the two PVC outer shaft housings into one of the two
end floor supports. The floor supports are split into a top and bottom half
that clamp together. Loosen the top 1/2–13 hex nuts to separate these
two split pieces. Insert one white bushing followed by the end of one
housing into the floor support. Tighten the two top nuts to clamp the floor
supports around the housing and bushing.
2. Install the housing assembly onto the base plate of the turntable
mechanical assembly using two 1/2–13 x 1.5-in hex bolts inserted
through the tie plate. Make sure the housing is square with the turntable
base for proper shaft alignment.
If DIM1 is 3035 mm (9.9 ft) or less, the mid-floor support is not required. Skip
to Install Drive Shaft on page 25.
If DIM1 is more than 3035 mm (9.9 ft), the mid-floor support is required.
3. If the mid-floor support is required, assemble the mid-floor support with a
white bushing onto the end of the shaft housing. Make sure the housing
is square with the turntable base for proper drive-shaft alignment after
final assembly.
Install Drive Shaft
The drive shaft has two reduced ends. Make sure the 2.69-cm (1.06-in) diameter
end with the groove goes toward the turntable. The knurled 2.54-cm (1.0-in)
diameter end should point toward the motor drive.
The coupling on the drive shaft will not fit through the white bushing if a
mid-floor support is used. The coupling should be on the motor drive side of
the mid-floor support when the drive shaft is installed into the housing.
1. Insert the turntable end of the drive shaft through the housing assembly
and into the clamp coupling on the gearbox. A 1/4-in diameter x 1-in long
dowel pin is furnished to key the shaft to the coupling and prevent
slipping.
