7.  Start by disassembling the diaphragm 

assemblies. Remove the air chambers (1) 
from the membrane frames.

8.  Now loosen the Phillips screws (2) 

(positioned in center of rubber membrane), 
on either end of magnet assembly.

NOTE: If this repair is felt to be 

too challenging or tools are not 

available to carry out these steps, 

please take the unit back to the 

Authorized Dealer or place of 

purchase to request assistance.

9.  Before removing rubber membranes and membrane 

frames from either end of magnet assembly, make sure 
to remove the plastic support discs (3). 

10. Release the rubber membrane (4) from the membrane 

frame by applying light pressure to the edge of the 
membrane to push it out of the groove.

11.  Insert the new membranes on both membrane frames.

12. Ensure that the rubber membranes are positioned in 

the recesses of the membrane frames and are correctly 
seated in the groove.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

13. Fit the rubber membranes and membrane frames back 

onto the magnet assembly. Next reinstall the support 
disk (tapered side against rubber membrane) on both 
sides of magnet. Before tightening the Phillips screw in 
the center on each rubber membrane, make sure that 
the position of both frames lines up with indentation on 
back of frame, that slightly mocks contour of magnet. 
This indentation is designed to prevent the frame from 
hitting the magnet during operation. 

14. Begin reassembling remaining components in the 

reverse manner.

15. Note that the power cable should fit snugly back into 

the recesses on the edge of the metal motor casing as 
well as the outside plastic housing. Make sure that the 
cable glands on power cable are lined up in the correct 
position to ensure the cable won’t be pinched or kinked.

16. Complete the operation by fastening all the screws 

back into their original positions. Take care not to cross 
thread or strip out the heads on the screws.

NOTE: If you are replacing the rubber 

membranes only, please proceed with the 

following steps!
