Air Motor and Throat Service

Reassembly

1.Clean all the parts carefully in a compatible solvent, and inspect for wear or damage. Use all the repair kit parts during reassembly, and replace other parts as necessary.

2.Check the polished surfaces of the piston (2), dis- placement rod (8), and cylinder (17) wall for scratches or wear. A scored rod causes premature throat seal wear and leaking.

3.Lubricate all parts with a light, water–resistant grease.

4.Install the new throat seal (6), lips facing down. Screw the packing nut (38) into the base (5).

5.Slide the displacement rod (8) down through the throat, and lower the piston (2) into the base (5). Be sure the o–rings (9, 10, and 24) are in place. See Fig. 4.

6.Pull the exhaust valve poppets (16) into the valve actuator (13), and clip off the top part shown with dotted lines in Fig. 5.

7.Install the air intake grommets (12), and reassemble the valve mechanism. Before you install the lock- wires (31) in the adjusting nuts (30), use the special gauge, 15E796, to adjust the transfer valve so there is 0.105 + .010 in. clearance between the poppets

(1) and the seat when it is open. See Fig. 5. Snap the toggles (25) to the up position. This is essential for reliable air motor performance.

8.Reassemble the air motor, and assemble to the dis- placement pump. Torque the extension tube (64) to to base (5) at 45 to 55 ft-lb (61 to 75 N•m). Before you install the air motor plate, tighten the throat packing nut (38) snugly; do not overtighten it.

9.Before you remount the pump, connect an air hose, and run the pump slowly, at about 40 psi (276 kPa, 2.8 bar), to ensure that it operates smoothly.

10.Reconnect the ground wire before regular operation of the pump.
