4.Remove pump plate screws using 5/16"
5.Remove pump plate.
6.Remove rotor, insert, and blades.
7.Check for debris in pump. If debris is found, blow out with compressed air.
8.Install insert and rotor.
9.Check gap on rotor. Adjust to .076/.101 mm (.003"/.004") if needed (see Fig- ure 27).
Note: Rotate rotor one full turn to insure the gap is .076/.101 mm (.003"/.004") at tight- est position. Adjust if needed.
10.Install blades, pump plate, air filters, and filter end cover.
11.Replace fan guard and upper shell.
