Motor Base for Frame 286
The Dayton 2M515 is an adjustable steel motor base built to fit NEMA frame size 286. Black finished steel construction provides a stable mounting platform for compatible blower motors. Two adjusting bolts allow precise belt tensioning during installation and maintenance. This base suits HVAC technicians and maintenance teams fitting or replacing blower assemblies.
Suits Direct Frame Replacement
This base serves installers who need a direct mount for a 286 frame motor in existing blower housings. It is not for applications requiring a different NEMA frame size or a base with more than two adjustment points. Buyers needing slide rails, spring-loaded tensioning or a different footprint should look at other mounting hardware.
Frame Size 286 Compatibility
The single specification that decides fit is the NEMA frame size 286 stamped on the motor nameplate. Overall length measures 19 3/4 in and overall width 18 3/8 in with an overall height of 2 in. Verify the motor frame number before ordering; no other dimension determines compatibility.

Questions about this item
What is the maximum NEMA frame size this motor base supports?
The base is compatible with NEMA frame size 286, so larger frames will not fit.
How much vibration and noise does the base transmit when the motor runs continuously?
The steel construction and two adjusting bolts hold the motor firmly, reducing vibration transfer to the mounting surface.
What mounting hardware must I already have to install this base?
You will need anchor bolts for the 19 3/4 in by 18 3/8 in footprint and fasteners that match the NEMA 286 motor mounting pattern.
