Clean the motor mounting threads with
an appropriate solvent, also clean the
threads of the motor mount. Remove
the valve housing assembly and O-ring
from the air motor.
17. Place a few drops of Loctite #242
sealant on both the external threads of
the air motor and the internal threads of
the mount. Screw the air motor into the
motor mount until fully seated. Back out
the air motor only enough to align the
motor to the mount when placed into
the assembly fixture.
18. Place the air motor and mount into the
assembly fixture. Make sure the pin
which extends out from the base of the
fixture is properly aligned into the
cavity found in the rear of the motor
mount. Securely clamp the motor in
place.

install the locking ring to 450-550 in-lbs.
(50-60 Nm) of torque.

small compression spring (84).
HANSEN PLUG
When removing/connecting the Hansen plug,
hold the air motor inlet fitting with one
wrench and tighten the Hansen plug with
another. If this is not done, you will loosen
or over-tighten the air motor housing, thus
affecting performance.
AIR MOTOR VALVE
Remove the air valve as follows:
1. Remove the Truarc ring (4), permitting
removal of the valve sleeve (5), stem (7),
and spring (9).
2. Clean all parts to be sure any dirt causing
sticking of the valve is removed.
3. Replacing the O-rings (6, 8) should
correct any leaking air. Oil lightly and
replace the parts as disassembled.
