8K Series ProPalette Repair Manual
Removal of the Stepper Motor
Note: This procedure covers removal of the stepper motor from
the Front Plate Assembly. It does not cover the removal of
the motor cable. The old motor cable is left in place until
the new cable is ready to be installed. This allows you to
lay the new motor cable alongside the old one during
installation, insuring that cable routing and tie wrapping
will accurately mimic the original version.
1. Remove the Front Bezel Assembly.
2. Remove the Camera Plate Assembly.
3. Remove the Access Panel.
4. Slide the Top Cover and Rear Panel Assembly back to reveal the PC boards.
5. Disconnect the spring from the stepper motor. (Figure 5-10)
6. The stepper motor is attached to a pivot post on the Front Panel. From the
front of the unit, remove the #4-40 keps nut from the pivot post.
7. The stepper motor is now free of the front plate, but is still attached to its
cable assembly which terminates at the Digital PC Board. To remove the
motor and attached cable from the ProPalette, complete the procedure which
follows.
