Motor Replacement (Fig. 21 and 22)
WARNING
FLUID INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
follow the illustrated
Pressure Relief
Procedure
warning on page 12 when-
ever you are instructed to relieve pressure.
NOTE:
Read the GENERAL REP AIR INFORMATION
on page 18 before doing this procedure.
1. Relieve pressure.
2. Remove the motor shield (1).
3. Remove the pressure control board/cover (301).
Disconnect the four motor leads. See figure 21.
4. Loosen the conduit connector nut on the conduit
connector (318) at the pressure control.
5. Swing the conduit (41) away from the conduit con-
nector (318).
6. Remove the conduit seal (31) from around the
conduit elbow coming into the pressure control.
Pull the motor leads through the elbow, one at a
time.
CAUTION
Always pull the motor leads one at a time to avoid
loosening the terminals, which could result in a bad
connection and poor sprayer performance.
7. Loosen the connector nut on the connector elbow
(39) at the motor and pull the conduit (41) away
from the motor. Pull the leads through the conduit,
one at a time.
8. Unscrew the connector elbow (39) from the
motor.
9. Pull the wires through the elbow, one at a time.
10. Remove the front cover (11).
11. Remove the two drive housing capscrews (8) and
lock washers (7).
12. Remove the two screws (58) and lockwashers (7)
from the motor (2).
13. Tap the drive housing (6) with a plastic mallet to
loosen it from the front of the motor (2), and then
pull the drive housing straight off.
CAUTION
DO NOT drop the gear cluster (26) when removing
the drive housing (6). The gear cluster may stay en-
gaged in the motor front end bell or the drive housing.
DO NOT lose the thrust balls (24) located at each end
of the gear cluster (26) or drop them between gears.
The balls, which are heavily covered with grease,
usually stay in the shaft recesses, but could be dis-
lodged. If caught between gears and not removed,
the balls will seriously damage the drive housing. If
the balls are not in place, the bearings will wear pre-
maturely.
14. While supporting the motor (2) to keep the
sprayer from tipping, remove the four motor
mounting screws (4). Lift off the motor.
15. Install the new motor (2).
16. Liberally apply bearing grease to the gear cluster
(26). The gear area should have approximately 4
total ounces of grease, Grease is supplied with
the drive housing replacement kit. Be sure the
thrust balls (24) are in place.
17. Place the bronze-colored washer (57a) and then
the silver-colored washer (57b) on the shaft pro-
truding from the big gear in the drive housing (6).
18. Align the gears and push the drive housing (6)
straight onto the front of the motor (2) and locating
pins.
19. Continue reassembling the sprayer. Use a turning
motion on the conduit (41) when feeding wires
through it. Install the conduit seal (31) around the
wires in the conduit elbow (318) at the pressure
control to keep contaminants from entering the
motor conduit. See the Detail in Fig. 22.
