Before You Start

DBe sure you have all necessary parts on hand. Repair Kit 238751 includes repair parts for the air motor and pump. Use all parts in the kit for the best results. Parts included in the kit are marked with one asterisk, for example (19*), in the text and drawings. See the Parts List on page 14.

DTwo accessory tools should be used: Padded Pliers, 207579, are used to grip the trip rod without damaging its surface, and a 0.125-in. (3.18 mm) Gauge, 171818, is used to assure the proper clearance between the poppets and seat of the piston.

Disassembly

2.Relieve the pressure.

3.Disconnect the hoses, remove the pump from its mounting, and clamp the air motor base (28) in a vise horizontally by closing the vise jaws on the flange.

4.Use a strap wrench on the displacement pump cylinder (110) to screw it out of the air motor base (28). See Fig. 3.

5.Remove the piston/valve seat (109) from the displacement rod (29) with wrenches or with the vise and a wrench.
