Important Features Incorporated in the New Hercules Design.

A - B  Combination of patented taper shaft and of adapter brackets provides flexibility of mounting different frame size motors on any given gearcase.
C U.S. Electrical Motors provides complete drive motor capability, hence unit responsibility.
D Quick Release jacking screw provided for easy disassembly of motor shaft.
E Breathers, either standard, dust, or water resistant are provided as application requires.
F Hercules are fitted with conveniently located lifting eye bolts.
G Housings are made of corrosion resistant cast iron.
