MAINTENANCE SECTION

A thread locking compound was applied to the threads of the Rotor during assembly to prevent the Controller Assembly (22) from loosening during operation. Before attempting to unscrew the assembly from the Rotor, apply moderate heat from a propane torch to the middle of the rotor body to soften the compound. Do not overheat the Rotor. Heat it only long enough to allow the Controller Assembly to be unscrewed without using excessive force.

Use only the special Controller Wrench for removing the Controller Assembly. Do not attempt to disassemble the Controller. It is available only as a unit and is guaranteed for the life of the Grinder if it is not abused.

11.Using the No. 77H–950 Controller Wrench, unscrew and remove the Controller Assembly (22).

The Rear End Plate, Spacer and Bearing are a matched set. Do not mix the components with those of another set. The Rear Rotor Bearing is always damaged during the removal process, and a complete new Rear End Plate Assembly must be installed.

12.If the Rear End Plate Assembly (23) consisting of the Rear End Plate, Spacer and Bearing needs to be replaced, press it from the Controller.

13.Remove the Rear End Plate Gasket (24).

14.Using No. 77H–154 Retainer Pliers, remove the Throttle Valve Seat Support Retainer (15).

15.Grasp the Throttle Handle horizontally in leather–covered or copper–covered vise jaws. Using a brass rod 8” (204 mm) long inserted into the air inlet end of the handle, lightly tap the brass rod with a soft hammer to release the Throttle Valve Seat Support Assembly (8).

16.Remove the Valve Seat Screw (9), Valve Seat Lock Washer (10), Valve Seat Washer (11), Valve Seat (12) and Valve Support Seals (13).

17.Check the Oiler Feeder Plug (14). Replace if necessary.
