9.  Pull the Front Rotor Bearing (29), Rotor Spacer Assembly (27) and 

Front End Plate Assembly (25) off the hub of the Rotor. If the Seal 

Cup Assembly (28) must be replaced, pull the Assembly off the 

Rotor Spacer.

Disassembly of the Throttle

1.  Using one wrench on the Throttle Handle Assembly flats and 

another wrench on the Inlet Bushing (4), unscrew the Inlet 

Bushing and remove the Air Strainer Screen (5), Throttle Valve 

Spring (6) and the Throttle Valve (7) from the handle.

2.  If the Throttle Valve Seat (8) must be removed, insert a hooked 

rod through the central opening in the Seat and, catching the 

underside of the Seat, pull the Seat from the handle.

CAUTION

 

The Throttle Lever Pin must be pressed from the throttle 

handle in a specific direction. Refer to the Parts Information 

manual 16573263. Failure to remove the Pin correctly will 

distort or damage the throttle handle.

NOTICE

 

The pin hole in one side of the Lever is larger than the other 

to facilitate removal and installation. Removing the Pin will 

allow the Lever Lock Spring (16) and Lever Lock (14) to be 

removed.

3.  To remove the Throttle Lever Assembly (13), press the Throttle 

Lever Pin (11) out of the throttle handle. 

4.  Lift off the Throttle Lever Assembly.

5.  If it is necessary to disassemble Throttle Lever Assembly (13), use a 

pin punch and hammer to drive the Lever Lock Pin (15) out the side 

of the Lever as shown in the Parts Information manual 16573263.

6.  To remove the Throttle Plunger Assembly (9), grasp the Plunger 

in copper-covered vise jaws and with a twisting action, pull the 

handle off the Plunger over the Throttle Plunger Stop (10).

7.  To remove the Throttle Plunger Bushing (2), proceed as follows:

Grasp the flats of a 1/4”-20 tap in copper-covered vise jaws 

with the thread cutting end upward.

Thread the Bushing (with the handle) onto the tap.

CAUTION

 

Do not heat the handle to remove the Bushing. Heat may cause 

damage to factory installed internal components.

c.  Using a plastic hammer, sharply rap the handle several times 

in the bushing area to loosen the retaining compound. Pull 

the handle with a twisting motion from the Bushing.

Assembly
General Instructions

1.  Always press on the inner ring of a ball-type bearing when 

installing the bearing on a shaft.

2.  Always press on the outer ring of a ball-type bearing when 

pressing the bearing into a bearing recess.

3.  Whenever grasping a tool or part in a vise, always use leather-

covered or copper-covered vise jaws. Take extra care with 

threaded parts and housings.

4.  Always clean every part and wipe every part with a thin film of oil 

before installation.

5.  Apply a film of O-ring lubricant to all O-rings before final assembly.

Assembly of the Throttle

1.  If the Throttle Plunger Bushing (2) was removed, proceed as follows:

Insert the Throttle Plunger Bushing into the Throttle Handle 

Assembly (1) to a depth approximately one-half the length of 

the Bushing.

Put a few drops of M. I. Hernon No. 822 sealant completely 

around the outside surface of the Bushing.

Rotate the Bushing approximately 180° to make certain the 

sealant makes complete contact around the outside of the 

Bushing.

Push the Bushing into the handle until it bottoms against the 

shoulder inside the handle.

Allow the sealant to cure for eight hours at room temperature.

2.  Install the Throttle Plunger Stop (10) in the annular groove in the 

Throttle Plunger (9).

NOTICE

 

Make certain the Throttle Plunger Stop enters the tool air 

flow chamber.

3.  With the Stop lubricated and using a turning motion, insert the 

assembled Throttle Plunger, Seal end leading, into the Bushing.

4.  If the Throttle Lever Assembly (13) was disassembled, proceed as 

follows:

Using a No. 43 drill or a piece of metal rod slightly under 0.090” 

diameter as a slave pin, position the Lever Lock (14) and Lever 

Lock Spring (16) in the Throttle Lever Assembly (13). Make 

certain the ends of the Spring are toward the tool inlet and 

the narrow end of the Lever Lock is toward the handle.

Check the functioning of the Lever Lock. If the Lock flattens 

against the Lever when the top portion of the Lock is pushed 

forward and returns to vertical when the Lock is released, it is 

assembled properly.

While controlling the slave pin, start the Lever Lock Pin (15) 

into the side of the Lever as shown in the Drawing Parts 

Information Manual 16573263.

While maintaining control of the slave pin, and using a 

hammer, tap the Lever Pin into position.

CAUTION

 

The Throttle Lever Pin must be pressed into the throttle handle 

in a specific direction. Refer to the Parts Information Manual 

16573263. Failure to install the Pin correctly will distort or 

damage the throttle handle.

5.  Position the Throttle Lever Assembly (13) on the Throttle Handle 

Assembly and press the Throttle Lever Pin (11) into position 

securing the Lever Assembly to the handle.

6.  If the Throttle Valve Seat (8) was removed, use a flat-faced rod 3/4” 

(19 mm) in diameter by 4” (100 mm) long to push the Valve Seat 

into the handle until it seats.

7.  Rotate the Throttle Plunger Assembly until the hole in the Plunger 

aligns dead center with the hole in the Throttle Valve Seat.

8.  Using needle nose pliers to hold the short stem of the Throttle 

Valve (7), install the Valve inserting the long stem end through 

the hole in the Throttle Valve Seat and Throttle Plunger.

9.  Install the Throttle Valve Spring (6), small end first, over the short 

stem of the Throttle Valve.

10. Insert the Air Strainer Screen (5), closed end leading, into the 

large end of the Valve Spring.

11. Install the Inlet Bushing (4) and tighten it between 74  

and 100 ft-lb (100 and 135 Nm) torque.

Assembly of the Motor

1.  Clamp the large body of the Rotor (23) in leather-covered or 

copper-covered vise jaws with the longer spindle shaft upward.

2.  Apply a small drop of a suitable thread-locking compound to the 

bottom of the O-ring groove at each of the four areas shown in 

Dwg. TPD1083 of the Front End Plate Assembly (25).
