Before You Start

1.Disconnect the displacement pump from the air motor as explained on page 11.

2.Be sure you have all the necessary repair parts on hand to reduce downtime.

3.Repair Kit 218112 is available. For best results, use all the new parts in the kit even if the old parts look good.

Intake Valve

1.Unscrew the intake valve housing (23) from the cylinder (13), using a strap wrench. Disassemble the valve and clean and inspect all parts.

2.Replace parts as necessary. Reassemble as shown in the applicable parts drawing.

Piston Valve

1.Using a strap wrench, grip the cylinder (13) near the outlet housing (6) and unscrew it from the housing. Pull the cylinder down off the piston. Check the inner surface of the cylinder for scoring or wear by running a finger over the surface or holding the part up to the light at an angle.

2.Loosen the lower nut (16) and unscrew the valve housing (18) from the connecting rod (17). Un- screw the piston stud (22).

3.Clean and inspect all piston parts. Replace parts as necessary. Reassemble the piston parts as shown, being sure that the lips of the u-cup pack- ing (21) are facing up. Screw the piston stud (22) into the valve housing (18) and torque to 31 NSm (24 ft–lb).

4.When reassembling the piston to the connecting rod (17), screw the connecting rod all the way into the displacement rod (15). Tighten the upper nut (16) against the displacement rod and torque to 33 NSm (24 ft–lb). Adjust the lower nut (16) to allow 3.1 mm (0.125 in.) free travel for the disk (19).

Throat Packings

1.Remove the cylinder (13) and piston as explained previously. Remove the packing nut (1) and pull the displacement rod (15) out of the top of the out- let housing (6). Inspect the outer surface of the displacement rod for scoring or wear by running a finger over the surface or holding it up to the light at an angle.

2.Remove the throat packings from the outlet hous- ing (6).

3.Clean and inspect the parts for wear or damage. Lubricate the packings before reassembly. Install the parts one at a time, in the same position as before. The lips of the u-cup must face down against fluid pressure.

4.Leave the packing nut (1) loose until the displace- ment rod (15) has been installed.

CAUTION

Insert the displacement rod from the top of the outlet housing to prevent shearing of the packings.

5.Tighten the packing nut just enough to prevent leaking. Overtightening can damage the packings.

6.Reconnect the displacement pump to the air motor as explained on page 11.
