A motor assembly includes a stator having a first diameter; and a rotor having a second diameter greater than the first diameter, the rotor being selectively positioned radially outward from the stator. The rotor includes a body including an annular skirt extending about the circumferential direction, the annular skirt defining an inner circumferential surface facing the stator and an outer circumferential surface opposite the inner circumferential surface along the radial direction; a first flange tab protruding outward from the outer circumferential surface of the annular skirt along the radial direction; and a second flange tab protruding outward from the outer circumferential surface of the annular skirt along the radial direction, the second flange tab being positioned opposite the first flange tab along the radial direction.
