User manual NOVAK T4

[. . . ] The included 0. 1µF (50V) [Novak #5620] non-polarized, ceramic capacitors must be used on all Terra Claw motors to reduce motor noise and prevent ESC damage. Solder 0. 1µF (50V) capacitors between: ·POSITIVE(+)motortab&NEGATIVE(­)motortab. ·POSITIVE(+)motortab&MotorCan ·NEGATIVE(­)motortab&MotorCan Positive (+) motor tab 0. 1µF Capacitors Grounded motor capacitors Negative (-) motor tab Motor can Make sure NOT to touch motor capacitor leads to motor can, except for the two motor capacitors that are grounded to the can. 2. INSTALLPINIONGEAR Install pinion on motor and align pinion and spur gears. [. . . ] ·SETGEARMESHPROPERLY Too tight of a gear mesh can result in motor pinion shaft breakage­be sure to adjust mesh properly. PRECAUTIONS ·WATER&ELECTRONICSDON'TMIX Never allow water, moisture, or other foreign materials to get inside motor. ·INSULATEWIRES Always insulate exposed wiring with heat shrink tubing to prevent short circuits. ·NOSOLVENTS Do NOT expose the motor to any type of solvents. ·MOTORCAPACITORS Brush motors generate electrical noise. Install all 3 capacitors on the motor to help prevent radio interference. ·NOSCHOTTKYDIODESWITHREVERSIBLEESCs NEVER use Schottky diodes on the motor with reversible ESCs­ESC damage will occur. ·SETGEARMESHPROPERLY Too tight of a gear mesh can result in motor pinion shaft breakage­be sure to adjust mesh properly. MOTOR MAINTENANCE ·CHECKMOTORBUSHINGS&BRUSHWEAR After extensive use, your motor's bushings or commutation brushes may need replacement. A small drop of light oil on the bushings periodically can help extend bushing life­however, too much oil will attract dirt and will cause problems, so apply sparingly & wipe clean. ·CLEANINSIDEMOTOR Periodically blow out the inside of the motor with compressed air.
