How to install motor mount electric skateboard?
Installing a motor mount on an electric Skateboard is a relatively straightforward process. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Gather the necessary tools and materials: You will need a motor mount kit, including the motor mount bracket, screws, and any additional hardware provided in the kit. You may also need a screwdriver, Allen wrenches, and a drill.
2. Prepare the Skateboard deck: Before installing the motor mount, make sure your Skateboard deck is clean and free of any dirt or debris. This will ensure a secure and stable installation.
3. Position the motor mount: Determine the optimal placement for the motor mount on your Skateboard deck. This will depend on the specific design of your electric Skateboard and the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the motor mount kit. Typically, the motor mount is positioned towards the rear of the Skateboard deck.
4. Mark drill holes: Use a pencil or marker to mark the drill holes for the motor mount bracket on the Skateboard deck. Make sure these marks are aligned with the mounting holes on the bracket.
5. Drill pilot holes: Using a drill, carefully drill pilot holes at the marked locations on the Skateboard deck. These pilot holes will help guide the screws during the installation process.
6. Attach the motor mount bracket: Place the motor mount bracket over the pilot holes on the Skateboard deck. Align the mounting holes on the bracket with the pilot holes and firmly attach the bracket using the provided screws or hardware.
7. Secure the motor: Once the motor mount bracket is securely attached to the Skateboard deck, you can now mount the electric motor onto the bracket. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on how to properly attach the motor to the motor mount.
8. Double-check the installation: Before using your electric Skateboard, double-check that all screws and bolts are tightened securely. This will ensure that the motor mount is stable and will not come loose during use.
Note: It's important to consult the instruction manual or contact the manufacturer of your specific electric Skateboard and motor mount kit for detailed and accurate installation instructions.
