take a small file or a dremel and notch the shaft where the grub screw digs in. problem solved.

why would there be notches inside the motor?!



see that slot/notch? thats what gets the grub screw to bite..

as you see their motor IS notched.



maybe the new versions of the bager don't have that but it should. the pump is cross drilled like their (vehicle) shafts and thats where the screw has to be alligned to bite pump side.

Chris, I think you are mis-understanding the original poster's problem here. His out-runner's bell housing, which has the magnets inside of it, is slipping on the central motor shaft. He isn't saying the motor doesn't have a flat on it, on the stub end, where a gear, or pulley would mount.
