Figure 6.
Mounting direct driven generator or alternator.
2. The pulley driven generator is mounted in the cradle assembly
(4, fig 5).
This cradle assembly is a chain vise.
CAUTION:
When installing an alternator or generator in the chain vise, be sure to
avoid clamping over nameplates and raised or protruding surfaces. Do
not clamp over the soft shell sections of the devices under test that
are not supported by stator or flange iron. Use the mounting angle (20,
foldout 1) or mounting channel (21, foldout 1) as support to prevent
crushing the thin sheet steel shell.
3. Mount the generator and secure with the chain vise. Loosen the
four hexagon nuts under the chain vise and slide the unit as required to aline the
pulleys (fig 5).
4. Loosen the four nuts that fasten the mounting bracket (1) to the
mounting plate (2). Adjust the pulley driven unit under -tent to the required
height to allow installation of the V-belts, being certain that the proper size of
V-belts matches the pulley.
