Drive Housing Replacement - Graco 232160 Instructions Manual

Drive Housing Replacement

WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
whenever you are instructed to relieve
pressure, follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure on page 8.
CAUTION
DO NOT drop gear cluster (9) when removing drive
housing (18). Gear cluster may stay engaged in the
motor front end bell or the drive housing.
DO NOT lose thrust balls (10) located at each end of
gear cluster (9) or drop them between gears. The
balls, which are heavily covered with grease, usually
stay in the shaft recesses, but could be dislodged. If
caught between gears and not removed, the balls will
seriously damage drive housing. If the balls are not
in place, the bearings will wear prematurely.
NOTE: Read General Repair Information on page 14
before doing this procedure. See Fig. 19.
