500e Always buy fire insurance a flood is a hard start Messages 8,569 Location South West Feb 22, 2023 #1 Which way should it rotate viewed from drive end of motor/comressor
Barking Mat Cuddler of hedgehogs. Messages 12,310 Location France, Brittany. Feb 22, 2023 #2 Well 50/50, I'll go for clockwise, but seeing as it's viewed from the wrong end of a motor, I'll hedge my bets and go anti clockwise too. Try it and see.

T Turbo Member Messages 6,092 Location Fermanagh, Northern Ireland Feb 23, 2023 #11 There's usually an arrow on the top or the guard cage or the pump pulley to indicate direction. I'll check the direction on my compressors & let you know.

K knighty Member Messages 3,308 Location Sunderland Feb 23, 2023 #13 looking at the fan blade it needs to go clockwise from where we're sitting so the top of the belt needs to move towards the motor, around the motor pully and back along the bottom

T Turbo Member Messages 6,092 Location Fermanagh, Northern Ireland Feb 23, 2023 #15 Checked my similar SIP & IR compressors & both spin clockwise looking from the pump body side.
