Diaphragms
NOTE: Fluid Section Repair Kit D05977 is available. Parts included in the kit are marked with a double dagger (‡) in Fig.
7 and in the Parts Drawings and Lists. General purpose grease 111920 and Adhesive 113500 are supplied in the kit.
Service the diaphragms as follows. See Fig. 7.
Disassembly
1. Relieve the pressure. See Pressure
Relief Procedure on page 10.
2. Remove the manifolds (102) and fluid covers (101).
NOTE: Make sure all the check valve parts stay in
place. See Fig. 6 on page 15.
3. Remove the grounding strip from the vee clamps
(109), and remove the vee clamps.
4. Remove one of the fluid-side diaphragm plates (133)
(whichever one comes loose first when you use a
wrench on the hex of each), and pull the diaphragm
shaft out of the center housing (11).
5. Use a wrench on the flats of the diaphragm shaft (15)
to remove the other fluid-side diaphragm plate (133)
from the diaphragm shaft.
6. Remove the screws (141) and air covers (136), and
remove all old gasket (12) material from the ends of
the center housing (11) and the surfaces of the air
covers.
7. Remove the diaphragm shaft u-cups (16) and pilot pin
o-rings (1).
8. Inspect all parts for wear or damage, and replace as
necessary.
Reassembly
1. Insert a diaphragm shaft u-cup (16) and a pilot pin
o-ring (1) into the end of the diaphragm shaft bore of
the center housing (11).
NOTE: Make sure the lips of the u-cup face out of the
center housing.
2. Line up the holes in the gasket (12) with the holes in
the end of the center housing (11), and use six
screws (141) to fasten an air cover (136) to the end of
the center housing (11). Torque the screws to 35 to
45 in-lb (4.0 to 5.1 N-m).

Service
3. Position the exhaust cover (13) and o-ring (4) on the
center housing (11).
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other end of the center
housing and the remaining air cover.
5. Apply medium-strength (blue) Loctite or equivalent to
the threads of the screws (140). Install on one end of
the diaphragm shaft (15) the following parts (see
proper order in Fig. 7): air-side diaphragm plate (6),
diaphragm (401), fluid-side diaphragm plate (133),
o-ring (115), and screw (140).
NOTE: The words "AIR SIDE" on the diaphragm
(401) and the flat side of the air-side diaphragm plate
(6) must face toward the diaphragm shaft (15).
6. Put grease on the diaphragm shaft (15), and carefully
(do not damage the shaft u-cups) run the diaphragm
shaft (15) through the center housing (11) bore.
7. Repeat step 5 for the other end of the diaphragm
shaft (15), and torque the diaphragm shaft screws
(140) to 80 to 90 in-lb (9 to 10 N-m) at 100 rpm
maximum.
8. Install the muffler (3).
When you install the vee clamps in step 10, orient the
center housing (11) so the air inlet is approximately 45°
above horizontal and the muffler (3) is approximately
horizontal.
9. Apply thin, even film of grease to inside of vee clamp
(109).
10. Position the fluid covers (101), install the vee clamps
(109) around the fluid and air covers, install the
grounding strip on the vee clamps, and torque the vee
clamp nuts to 80 to 90 in-lb (9 to 10 N•m). See
Torque Sequence, page 20.
11. Make sure all the check valve parts are in place. See
Fig. 6 on page 15.
12. Install the manifolds (102), and torque the manifold
bolts (105) to 80 to 90 in-lb (9 to 10 N•m). See
Torque Sequence, page 20.
