Drive motor function

When the stator winding is charged, a magnetic

field will occur, which in turn will rotate the motor at

a fixed RPM depending upon the number of poles

in the winding. The 12-pole winding gives the

wash speed and the 8-pole winding in the same

motor gives the distribution speed. The separate

4/2-pole motor gives the extraction speeds. When

operating with load, the speed deviates slightly

from the synchronous (no-load) speed. This

difference is called the slip and is usually

expressed as a percentage of the synchronous

speed. The motors will work satisfactory at

nominal voltage +10% – -15%.

How to remove motors

Loosen the spring loaded set screw. Lift the motor

unit and detach the V-belts. Dismount the bracket

holding the motor hinge shaft. Lift out the motor

bracket with motors mounted. Loosen the

mounting screws of the extract motor and the set

screws. Lift off the V-belts. Now remove the

mounting screws for each motor.

How to mount motors

Place the motors on the table or bench with the

mounting holes upwards. Mount the mounting

bracket to the wash/distributiont motor. Position

the other motor and fasting the mounting screws.

Mount the V-belts. Tighten the belts. Mount the

bracket with motors in the machine in the opposite

way as outlined above in ’’How to remove motors’’.
