Lubricate the motor with an air line lubricator,
using a light air motor oil. Adjust the lubricator
to dispense one drop per cycle or three drops per
minute.
CAUTION Do not use substitutes for oil and grease.
This could result in damage to the tool.
MAINTENANCE
1. Proper and continuous lubrication.
2. Blow out air hose to assure a clean air supply.
3. Be sure the air filter and line lubricator are clean.
4. Fill the line lubricator before operation.
5. Place a few drops of oil into the air inlet of the
tool be-fore attaching the air line.
6. Use moisture separators to remove water from
the air line.
7. An air line filter-regulator-lubricator should be
located as closely as possible to the tool.
8. Keep screen handle bushing in tool.
WARNING: Disconnect the air supply hose before
servicing the tool.
Disassembly
1. Secure tool in vise vertically with output of
tool oriented toward upward direction. Clamp onto
the flats toward the rear of the motor housing.
2. Unscrew motor retainer (403-38) from motor
housing(402-132). Lift off exhaust deflector(410-G-
17-S) and o-ring (400-51)if worn from motor hous-
ing. Remove motor assembly from housing.
3. Secure motor assembly into vise vertically with
output in the downward direction. Clamp onto
flats on the collet body (1100-672).
4. Remove snap ring (404-39) from rear endplate
(404-19) with use of snap ring pliers.
5. Lift out bearing cover (404-38) and o-ring
(594016).
6. Remove snap ring (592016) from groove of
rotor (4031-5A).
7. Using a soft-jawed vise. Secure motor assem-
bly into vise vertically with output toward down-
ward direction. Clamp lightly the outside diameter
of the cylinder (400-2G) and endplate (404-19).

direction. Clamp onto flats on the collet body (1100-672).
6. Place five blades (400-6) into blade slots.
7. Slip cylinder (400-2G) over rotor and onto endplate. The small pin on face of
cylinder should face toward rear to tool.
8. Place rear endplate (404-19) onto cylinder. Locate the pin of the cylinder
into the small hole of the rear endplate.
9. Press bearing (404-9) into rear endplate with a suitable bearing driver.
