Re: How to attach an impeller to a CIM motor

We used a shop vac. Removed everything but the impeller, housing, and motor. Then we removed the armature from the motor shaft with a press and mounted a toothed belt pulley on the motor shaft, another on the CIM, with a 3:1 increase in speed.

Tried gears first, but it was very loud.
