prusaprinters

<p>Do you have Central A/C and the outdoor Condensing Unit fan died on the hottest day of the year? And the only replacement Fan Motor in town has a smaller bolt spacing, thus frustrating your plans to chill?</p> <p>It seems that Condenser Fan motors have two common bolt spacings, Type 48 and Type 42, which is smaller.</p> <p>This Template is designed help you drill 4 evenly spaced holes for a smaller type 42 replacement motor using the original type 48 holes as a reference. Of course, you will need a motor of suitable power, rotation direction, voltage and length.</p> <p>Just remove the old motor, plop the Template "pegs down" into the original holes and drill 4 perfectly centered and aligned holes for the new motor. The holes are offset so that the new motor lead out wires should line up with the wire guide.</p> <p>Check first before drilling!</p> <p>You might get better placement by putting the Template on the bottom face of the panel rather than the top.</p> <p>Sure beats doing it by drawing out the locations with a compass or doing it by eye and getting it all crooked!</p> Category: DIY
