Assembling And Welding The Turbine Kit英文电子书.pdfVIP

Assembling and welding the turbine kit Begin by locating the stator backing plate and bearing hub as shown in the picture below… Next.. Insert the bearing hub in the stator plate center hole. You may need to take some sandpaper to clean up the hole to get the hub to slip in. It’s a snug fit. Make sure the bearing hub is flush with the face of the plate before welding. You don’t need to weld all the way around the hub as this is not a structural area, it only holds the stator in place. Four welds equally spaced about ½ to ¾ inch long is more than sufficient. Be careful not to burn through into the bearing surface. The picture below shows how it should look when it’s completed… Below is a picture of the welded assembly from the back side of the unit. The welds are placed in line with the stator mounting holes Once this is completed you can weld the yaw tube bracket in place. This is welded between a pair of mounting holes on the stator mounting plate so there is easy access to the holes as shown in the picture below… Notice that the end of the yaw bracket hangs over the end of the bearing hub about ¼ of an inch. Once positioned weld the top and bottom of the yaw bracket to the bearing hub. Be careful not to burn into the bearing surface, especially on the ends or you’ll be grinding the edges to fit the bearing. Next find the yaw tube and insert it into the yaw bracket hole. Center the tube in the bracket (about 4 inches on top and bottom. The hole is sloppy so we can add a bit of tilt to the turbine. Lift the bottom side of the tube then tack weld it in place. This will add about a 2-degree tilt to help keep the bottom of the blade away from the tower. The picture below shows the tube welded in place… Next you will weld the angle bracket on the yaw tube.
