diameter of the bushing is 52.9 mm (2.08 inches). It is to be used with a 2”
schedule 40 stainless steel tubing mast.
When required, the outer diameter of the bushing can be reduced slightly by
sanding to help accommodate installation inside the mast.
Hardware provided in this kit includes three (3) M6 x 8 Socket cap screws with
TUFLOK coated threads and rubber rings used to attach the bushing to the
yaw shaft. Two (2) M6 x 6 hexagon socket button head screws are used to
attach the bushing to the mast (optional M6 x 12 hexagon socket button head
screws are also included). These screws will extend into the groove of the
yaw shaft, but should not touch it.
7.2.2.2 American Delrin
®
(Black)
The Superwind 350/48V comes
with two (2) black elastodamphner
rings installed on the yaw shaft.
When using the American Delrin
®
(Black) bushing, both of the black
elastodamphner rings installed on
the SW350/48V must be removed
from the yaw shaft prior to
installation. The American Delrin
®
(Black) will swell slightly in salt
water applications. This can be
useful in helping to reduce the non-
circular dimensions of the mast. If
required, the outer diameter of the
bushing can be reduced slightly by
sanding help accommodate
installation inside the mast. The
inner diameter of a American
Delrin
®
(Black) bushing is 42.2 mm
(1.66 inches). The outer diameter of
an American Delrin® (Black)
bushing is 52.1 mm (2.05 inches).
Hardware included are three (3)
Socket cap screws with rubber rings (M6 x 8 with TUFLOK) and two (2)
hexagon socket button head screws (M6 x 6) or (M6 x 12).
7.3 Mast mounting
Before mounting the Superwind 350/48V on the mast
or support, the wiring from the generator to the stop
switch must be led through the mast tube (Fig. No. 7.3)
and be connected to the switch with correct polarity (see
Section 6.3.3).
