INSTALLATION GUIDE
Attaching motor to linkage assembly
The motors need to be installed before continuing with the rest of the Power
Step install.
CAUTION: HANDLE WITH CARE.
To insure our customers receive all components with full integrity, we pack
the motors seperate from their linkage assemblies. This requires that the
installer position and fasten the motor before continuing with the install.
Please follow the instructions below and handle the assembly carefully.
CAUTION: Dropping the assembly or any excessive impact MAY cause
damage to the motor.
Instructions:
1. Position the gear cover in place as shown if not already in place.
2. Seat motor into position on the three mounting bosses. This may require
an adjustment of the gear by moving the swing arms.
3. After seating into place, fasten the motor with the three motor mount
screws with T30 Torx. Tighten screws to 80 in-lbs (9N-m). Do not over
torque.
