During the warranty period, this operation
should only be carried out in an approved
workshop or in our factory, otherwise the
warranty may be invalidated.
Whilst being handled, the machine

- 1 set of flat spanners: 7, 8, 10, 12 mm
- 1 socket set: 8, 10, 13, 16, 18, 21, 22,
24 mm
- 1 Allen key: size 5 (eg. Facom: ET5), size 6
(ET6), size 10 (ET10, size 14 (ET14)
- 1 T20 and T30 TORX bit
- 1 puller (U35)/(U32/350)
• Screw tightening torque
See section 5.4.
• Access to diodes
- Remove the air intake grille [51].
- Check all 3 modules using an ohmmeter or
a battery lamp.
- Refit the modules.
- Refit the air intake grille [51].
• Access to connections and the
regulation system
The terminals are accessed directly by
removing the terminal box lid [48]. To access
the AVR adjustment potentiometers, the

eg. U.32 - 350 (FACOM).
- Remove the antifriction bearing [70] using
a screw puller.
- Reassembly
- Heat the inner slipring of a new bearing by
induction or in a drying oven at 80°C (do not
use an oil-bath) and fit it to the machine.
- Place the preloading wavy washer [79] in
the shield and fit a new O ring seal [349].
Refit the NDE shield and pass the bundle of
wires between the top bars of the shield.
- Refit the fixing clamps on the cables, the
