2.Relieve the pressure.

3.Disconnect air hose and fluid hose.

4.Disconnect displacement pump (109) from motor (101) as follows. Note relative position of pump’s fluid outlet (U) to air inlet (V) of motor. If motor does not require servicing, leave it attached to its mounting.

CAUTION

If you are disconnecting the displacement pump from a motor which is still mounted (for example, on a wall bracket), be sure to support the displacement pump while it is being disconnected, to prevent it from falling and causing injury or property damage.

2.Insert clevis pin (106) through piston rod (W) and displacement rod (1). Install cotter pin (107).

3.Screw nuts (108) onto tie rods (105) and tighten.

4.Reconnect all hoses. Reconnect ground wire if disconnected. Fill wet cup (2) 1/3 full of Graco Throat Seal Liquid or compatible solvent.
