Description

PDF

This is a simple cover for your generic DC Motor, to allow the wires to come up from the side neatly, instead of going straight out where the motor shaft is, hitting whatever you have connected to the motor. What this does, is just route the wire all the way around the motor nicely covered by the print, directed up out of the print for easy connection to your motor driver.

Installation is pretty simple, all you have to do is put the inside piece on first, pushing it into place so it is relatively flush with the motor bearing, then get your wires, and run them along the divet, making sure that its pressed in there nice and tight; then, you just need to slide the cover on (making sure its oriented where the slot is at the spot where the wires come out) and it will stay in place, just make sure to push in the wires if they pop out while you are trying to put the cover on, so it doesn't crimp the wires. The images are also in order for the steps to putting it together if you are still having trouble.
