    • The center of the hole should be 1 3/4" away from the corner of the angle.
    • You need to ensure the hole is large enough so that where the bolt holes are will be touching the angle when in place. The motor is most likely raised in the center.
    • You can torch separate holes for the bolts, or do one large, odd shaped one like is pictured.
