The radial bearings may be soaked in a solvent
compatible with the paint debris intrusion. Use of
an Ultrasonic cleaner may aid in loosening of the
foreign material.
Air Bearing Jet Inspection:
Using a .004 inch (0.102mm) dia. wire inspect all
bearing air jet holes in both bearings making sure
they are clean and free of debris. Blocked holes re-
duce the load capacities of the turbine motor allowing
it to fail prematurely. If holes are blocked and cannot
be cleared with wire, replace with new bearings.
Do Not Change Bearing Jet Hole
Size - Performance and motor life
will be affected.
Polish ID of Bearing:
Dependent upon shaft contact to the ID of the
bearing it may be necessary to polish the inside
diameter of the bearing as shown in Figure 1-12.
Polish bearing in circular (rotation)
motion not in linear direction use
only abrasive paper/cloth 2/0.
