How to replace a motor on a WAM Screw

November 11, 2025

WAM Screws are the industry standard for Concrete Producers.  They are well engineered and configured to meet the production needs of the Ready-mix Concrete Industry.  They are also easy to service and maintain.

If needed, the screw motor can be easily replaced by a few steps;

  1. Put a sling on the motor and back off the bolts to the reducer.
  2. The motor’s output shaft slides out of the reducer.
  3. The part that is spinning near the gearbox use a pry bar and slide it out.
  4. Remove the NEMA adapter from the motor and add it to the new motor.
  5. Installation of the new motor is the reverse steps.
