REMOVAL PROCEDURES CONTINUED

Step Six:

flip unit over on its back and remove the front motor assembly bolts with a 7/16” socket.

Step Seven:  use a 9/16” deep socket to remove the remaining brass hex fittings from the motor.

Step eight: rotate unit 180º onto its face. remove the three rear motor assembly bolts with the 7/16” socket.

fish out the rear motor end plate with an offset screw driver.

Note: a grounding wire is attached to the end plate bolt located between the two air motor fittings.

CAUTION:

be  sure  to  note  the  location  of  all  grounding  wires,  wahsers  and  star  washers  before
removing.  reattached  assemblies  to  the  same  location  from  which  they  were  removed  in
order to safeguard proper ground continuity.

Step Nine: the motor is now detached from the mounting assembly. carefully slip out of the housing for

repair. tape over the air fittings holes to prevent debris from falling into the motor while it is out
of the housing.

Step ten:

Decide if you want to ship the motor to the factory for repair, order a service kit that you can
install or purchase a new motor. Please contact the factory at the number listed on the front of this
manual to obtain parts, secure a return authorization or receive technical assistance.

REINSTALLING THE AIR MOTOR INTO THE VAF-3000P HOUSING

Step one:

Prepare motor for installation by removing the shipping plugs from the air motor ports. lay the
Vaf-3000P face down on a firm work surface.

Step two:

carefully  position  air  motor  into  the  housing  assembly  with  the  motor  shaft  through  the  front
mounting plate. be sure to align the air fitting holes of the motor and housing so that the fittings
can be installed into the motor through the housing.

Step three: coat threaded joints with loctite #545 Pneumatic Seal or equivalent product to insure leak free

installation of air fittings. install the two brass hex nipples into the air motor and tighten with a
9/16” deep socket.

Step four: Stand unit on base with front facing you. attach motor to front housing plate with three 7/16”

bolts  while  maneuvering  the  motor  into  position  from  the  rear.  tighten  securely  with  a  7/16”
socket.

Step five:

lay unit with the rear of motor facing up. install
the rear end plate by using a nail or other object
to  align  end  plate,  grounding  stud  ring  and
threaded hole.

Note: the  bolt  to  which  the  grounding  wire  must  be

attached  is  located  between  the  two  air  fittings.
Secure the three mounting bolts by tightening with a
7/16” socket.

CAUTION:

failure to reattach grounding stud ring to the same location from which it was removed will
break ground continuity and allow the accumulation of static electricity.
