ACTUATION CHAIN
To remove and replace the actuation chain first
remove the dispenser shaft (1):
1. Position the dancer arm at its lowest position.
2. Loosen the collars (2) on the dispenser shaft
bearings (3). Remove the shaft assembly from
the post and set it to the side.
3. Remove the pipe cap (4) from the spring
housing (5).
4. Remove the hex nut and the spring bushing
from the stud. This may be difficult to do as
thread sealant was applied during factory
assembly.
The dancer arm shaft (6) must then be removed:
5. Remove the rear bearing assembly (7)
and the retaining ring (8) from the
dancer arm shaft.
6. Remove the fasteners (9) that attach the
dancer arm front bearing (10) assembly
to the post.
7. Remove the dancer arm assembly, with
front bearing intact, from the post,
sliding the shaft out of the dancer arm
sprocket (11). Note the sprocket key
(12).
8. Remove the sprocket and the chain
assembly (13) from the post.
9. Disassemble the sprocket-chain-stud
assembly then replace the chain and
reassemble the parts.
10. Reassemble the dancer arm assembly in
reverse order of disassembly.
11. Separate the post assembly from the
base plate by removing the post mounting fasteners.
12. Insert and direct the spring stud through the dancer arm compression spring in the spring
housing. Make sure the chain is sealed on the brake arm camshaft sprocket and replace the
spring bushing. Apply thread adhesive, Loctite 242 or equivalent, to the spring stud and
reinstall the hex nut.
