6. Remove the trigger by pulling the trigger up slightly and out of the housing. Also remove the reverse lever from the housing. 7. Remove the hall cable connector from the motor. This connector is located at the top of the motor. It should be removed by placing the shaft of a small screwdriver under the cable to support it just behind the connector then gently pulling up on the screwdriver to unplug the connector.

12. Using a 2mm Allen wrench, remove the two Allen Screws which hold the motor mount onto the motor. Then remove the mount. 13. Carefully remove the electronic components (circuit boards, transducer and cables) from the housing. 14. Disconnect the transducer cable from the Foot Control Board. 47104302_ed1...

Gear Case and Gear Pack Disassembly 1. For units with the ¼” quick change spindle, disassemble the spindle as follows. Remove the spiral spring clip from the front of the spindle, then remove the quick change collar, spring, spring support and rear spiral snap ring. 2.
7. Disassemble the planetary gears and the pinion gear from the spindle assembles. Inspect the gear teeth and shaft holes for wear and damage. A pinion gear is used on the 4 Nm and 8 Nm tools only. 8. Also check the planetary spindle shafts for wear and damage. This completes the disassembly of the unit. Tool Assembly 1.

3. Install the Gear Pack first, ensuring that the motor shaft engages into the gearing. Next, install the Gear Case assembly into the motor mount. 4. Ensure the transducer cable is to the left of the gear case ear so it can be routed properly and will not be damaged when the motor/gear case assembly is installed into the housing.
