  • Page 27 Owner/Operator Manual Inspect the sides of the vanes to see if they are bent, out of parallel, worn to a concave shape on one side or have frayed edges. Any of these conditions require part replacement. These characteristics could indicate foreign material caught alongside the vane, a burr in the edge of the rotor slot or improper lubrication.
  • Page 28 Owner/Operator Manual The outer circumference of the spacer should be inspected for signs of contact with the bore of the end cover bearing housing. If there has been contact, it could be a sign that the bearing is worn and needs to be replaced.
  • Page 29 Owner/Operator Manual Turn the screws counter-clockwise one half turn at a time to evenly lift the bearing. If the jacking screws do not loosen the bearing entirely, use a bearing puller to remove it from the shaft. Screw the jacking screws all the way back in after bearings have been removed. Warning! Do not loosen the socket head screws that secure the flange to the rotor Do not install new bearings and Spacers at this time.
  • Page 30 Owner/Operator Manual If the end covers have been damaged by rotor-to-end cover contact and there are grooves worn in or the damage is minor, the face of the end cover should be wiped clean with solvent and then lapped with the lapping compound against the other end cover.
  • Page 31 Owner/Operator Manual Where used, install the O-Ring in the end cover groove. Small dabs of grease will help retain the O- Ring in the groove. Align the end cover dowel pin holes with the dowel pins in the cylinder face. Drive the cover on evenly with a rubber mallet working from side-to-side to prevent bending the dowel pins or distorting the holes in the end cover.
  • Page 32 Owner/Operator Manual Installing the Second End Cover: Repeat the procedure of installing the first end cover until the O-ring (if used) has been fitted into the groove. Apply a small amount of grease to the lip of the oil seal, remove the shaft support and fit the end cover over the end of the shaft.
