A debris deflector includes an at least partially annular body defining a central axis, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction about the central axis. The at least partially annular body includes an outer radial extremity defining surface, an inner radial extremity defining surface, a first circumferential extremity defining surface, and a second circumferential extremity defining surface. A first deflection surface extends from the first circumferential extremity defining surface, and defines a first surface normal that points away from the central axis.

Debris deflector for a final drive

A motor drive assembly for a dual path electric powertrain of a machine is disclosed. The motor drive assembly may include a final drive assembly to engage a ground engaging element of the machine. The motor drive assembly may include an electric motor to provide torque to the final drive assembly. The motor drive assembly may include a planetary gear assembly mechanically coupled to a rotor shaft of the electric motor and an axle of the final drive assembly. The motor drive assembly may include a brake assembly to engage a component of the planetary gear assembly to retard the rotor shaft and the axle.
