22.Use a strap wrench to screw the displacement pump cylinder (105) to the air motor base (28), and torque to 40 to 60 ft–lb (54 to 81 N•m).

23.Before remounting the pump, connect an air hose and run the air motor slowly, starting with just enough air pressure to make the air motor run, and make sure that it operates smoothly.

Never operate the pump with the warning plate (47) or the identification plate (46) removed. These plates protect your fingers from getting pinched or ampu- tated by moving parts in the air motor.

24.Reconnect the ground wire before you resume regu- lar pump operation.
