MOTOR INSPECTION AND
CLEANING
Inspect and clean all parts as follows:
CLEANING
Clean all parts with a degreasing solvent. Blow dry with
compressed air and wipe clean. Use only lint-free cloths.
GEAR HOUSING
The chamber bores and bottoms around the shaft bushings
should be polished and not rough or grooved. If the bush-
ing bores are yellow-bronze, replace them and investigate
the cause of wear.
The fl at surfaces around the chamber and bolt holes should
be fl at and free of nicks or burrs that could cause misalign-
ment or leaks.
BUSHINGS
The inside of the bushings should be gray with
some bronze showing through. If signifi cant yellow-bronze
shows, replace the bushings. Inspect motor shaft for cor-
responding wear and replace as required.
GEARS
The drive and idler gears should have straight tips without
nicks, square tooth ends and a smooth even polish on the
teeth and end faces. Check for cracks between the drive
gear keyway and gear tooth root. Replace the gear if
cracks are present.
VALVE HANDLE MOTOR SURFACE
The surface near the gears should show two interconnect-
ing polished circles without a step. The bottom of the o-ring
