Figure 29 - Install Motor Mounting Shims
2. Install the motor mounting bolts and shims
as necessary. Tighten to motor manufactur-
ers specications.
NOTES: Make sure to install shims where
necessary to prevent motor frame distortion re-
sulting from “soft-foot.” Soft-foot is a condition
were one of the motor frame feet are not in at
contact with the mounting base. If not properly
shimmed when the bolt is tightened, the motor
frame will distort. FEDCO does not supply mo-
tor shims.
