Assembly of the Gearing
1.  For Models 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, if the Spindle Planet 

Gear Bearings (36) were removed, press new Bearings into the 

Planet Gears (35) using a needle bearing inserting tool. Press the 

Bearings into the Gear until they are flush with the face of the Gear. 

If any Gears are damaged, install a complete new set of Gears. Do 

not mix old Gears with new Gears in the same motor.

 

For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, if the 

Spindle Planet Gear Bushings (37) were removed, press new 

Bushings into the Planet Gears (35). Press the Bushings into the 

Gear until they are flush with the face of the Gear. If any Gears are 

damaged, install a complete new set of Gears. Do not mix old Gears 

with new Gears in the same motor.

2.  Support the web at the output end of the Spindle (33) on the table 

of an arbor press and position an assembled Spindle Planet Gear 

in the web. The holes in the webs of the Spindle are tapered and 

smaller toward the output end of the Spindle. Press a Spindle planet 

Gear Shaft (38) through the rear web and Gear and into the front 

web until the Shaft is flush with the face of the rear web.

3.  Repeat Step 2 with the remaining Spindle Planet Gears.

4.  Stand the Spindle output end upward, on the table of an arbor press 

and using a piece of tubing that will clear the Spindle, press the 

Spindle Front Bearing (39) onto the Spindle.

5.  Invert the Spindle and without applying pressure to the Spindle 

Front Bearing, press the Spindle Rear Bearing (34) onto the short 

hub of the Spindle. 

6.  Apply lubricant to the gearing and shaft and insert the assembled 

Spindle, output end leading, into the end of the Gear Case (29) with 

the largest opening. Push the assembly into the Gear Case until the 

Spindle Front Bearing seats in the gear case bearing recess.

7.  For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, install 

the Spindle Bearing Retainer (28) in the groove inside the Gear Case 

behind the assembled Spindle.

8.  For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, if the Gear 

Head Planet Gear Bearings (25) were removed from the Gear Head 

Planet Gears (24), press new Bearings into the Gears using a needle 

bearing inserting tool. If any Gears are damaged, install a complete 

new set of Gears. Do not mix old Gears with new Gears in the same 

motor.

9.  For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, support 

the web at the spline shaft end of the Gear Head (21) on the table of 

an arbor press and position a Gear Head Planet Gear with a Bearing 

in the web. The holes in the webs of the Gear Head are tapered and 

smaller toward the spline shaft end of the Gear Head. Press a Gear 

Head Planet Gear Shaft (26) through the rear web and Bearing into 

the front web until the Shaft is flush with the face of the rear web.

10. For Models 3800P or 3840P, insert the Rotor Pinion (22) into the 

center of the Gear Head. This must be done before installing the 

second Gear in the Gear Head. It cannot be installed after a 

second Gear is secured in position.

11. For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, repeat 

Step 9 with the remaining Gear Head Planet Gear and Bearing.

12. For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, stand 

and support the assembled Gear Head on the table of an arbor 

press with the spline shaft end downward and press the Gear Head 

Bearing (23) onto the hub of the Gear Head.

13. For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, install the 

Gear Head Spacer (27) on the spline shaft of the Gear Head.

14. For all Models except 3800K, 3800M or 3840K, 3840M, apply 

lubricant to the gear head gearing and while engaging the spline of 

the Gear Head with the gearing of the Spindle, slide the assembled 

Gear Head into the Gear Case.

Assembly of the Motor
1.  Push the Rear End Plate (9), flat face leading, onto the short hub 

of the Rotor (13).

2.  Push the Rear Rotor Bearing (8) onto the short hub of the Rotor 

into the recess of the Rear End Plate and install the Rear Rotor 

Bearing Retainer (7) in the groove on the shaft of the Rotor to 

retain the Bearing and End Plate.

3.  Place a Vane (12) in each vane slot in the Rotor and place the 

Cylinder (16) down over the Rotor and Vanes and against the Rear 

End Plate make certain the holes in the Cylinder and End Plate 

can be aligned. If they can’t, invert the Cylinder.

4.  Press the Front Rotor Bearing (18) into the smaller bearing recess 

of the Front End Plate (17).

5.  Press the Front Rotor Bearing, Front End Plate leading, onto the 

spline end of the rotor shaft until the End Plate contacts the 

Cylinder.

6.  Use a 1/8” rod approximately 10” long to align the cylinder dowel 

holes in the Front End Plate, Cylinder and Rear End Plate. Insert 

the end of the rod at the Rear End Plate end into the dowel hole 

in the Motor Housing. Slide the assembled motor along the rod 

into the Motor Housing. Slide the assembled motor along the rod 

into the Motor Housing until it stops against the bottom of the 

motor bore.

7.  Remove the assembly rod and install the Cylinder Dowel (14) in 

its place.

8.  Install the Motor Retaining Ring (19) in the Motor Housing 

against the Front End Plate.

9.  Insert the Motor Retainer (20), large opening trailing, over 

the rotor shaft and into the Motor Housing against the Motor 

Retaining Ring.

10. Install the assembled Gear Case against the Motor Housing. 

It may be necessary to rotate the Spindle by hand to properly 

engage the gearing with the spline on the Rotor. Make certain 

the Gear Head Bearing (23) or Spindle Rear Bearing (34) enters 

the recess in the Front End Plate.

11. Secure the Gear Case to the Motor Housing with the three Gear 

Case Cap Screws (32) and Lock Washers (4).

12. For Models with Piped-Away Exhaust, install new Exhaust 

Deflector Seals (11A and 11B) in the internal grooves at each end 

of the Exhaust Deflector (11).

13. Slide the Exhaust Deflector over the rear of the Motor Housing 

until it stops against the Housing.

14. Position the Backhead Gasket (6) against the rear face of the 

Motor Housing.

 

For Series 3800 Non-reversible Motors, position the Gasket to 

block off the holes in the quadrant marked with an “R” if forward 

rotation is desired, or to block off the holes in the quadrant with 

an “F” if reverse rotation is desired.

 

For Series 3840 Reversible Motors, position the Gasket so that 

each gasket inlet port aligns with a group of three holes through 

the housing rear wall.

15. Place the Backhead (2) against the Gasket. Install the four 

Backhead Cap Screws (3) and Lock Washers (4) to secure the 

Backhead and Exhaust Deflector to the Motor Housing.

16. Install one Air Strainer (1) for non-reversible models and two Air 

Strainers for reversible models in the Backhead.
