2. Safety Information

WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. Disconnect power at the circuit breaker or fuse box before installing or servicing this motor. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.

3. Setup and Installation

The Intermatic WG1603-11D motor is a direct replacement for compatible Intermatic time clock series. Follow these steps for proper installation:

  4. Remove Old Motor: Unmount the old motor from its position within the time clock.
  5. Install New Motor: Position the new Intermatic WG1603-11D motor in the same location as the old one. Ensure it is securely mounted.

4. Operating Instructions

Once the WG1603-11D motor is installed, the time clock will resume its normal operation. The motor itself does not require direct user interaction for operation; it functions as an internal component driving the time clock mechanism.

  • Ensure the time clock is properly programmed according to its specific model's instructions.
  • Verify that the time clock's hands or digital display are moving correctly after power restoration.

5. Maintenance

The Intermatic WG1603-11D Timer Clock Motor is designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. No routine lubrication or adjustment is required for the motor itself.

  • Periodically inspect the time clock enclosure for dust, debris, or moisture accumulation.
  • Ensure all electrical connections remain secure.
  • If the time clock exhibits erratic behavior or stops functioning, refer to the troubleshooting section.

6. Troubleshooting

If the time clock is not functioning correctly after motor replacement, consider the following:

  • Time Clock Not Running:
    • Check if power is supplied to the time clock. Verify the circuit breaker or fuse.
    • Ensure the motor's fixed tab connectors are securely attached to the time clock's terminals.
    • Confirm the motor's voltage (208-277V) matches the supply voltage.
    • Inspect for any visible damage to the motor or wiring.
  • Incorrect Time Keeping:
    • This motor is a replacement for the drive mechanism. If time keeping is incorrect, refer to the original time clock's manual for programming or adjustment instructions.
    • Ensure the time clock is not subjected to extreme temperatures or vibrations that could affect its accuracy.

If issues persist, contact a qualified electrician or Intermatic customer support.
