AIR MOTOR REBUILD
(SEE EXPLODED VIEW OF 31-418-1 ON PAGE 4.)
Do not pry dead end plate (21) or drive end plate (27) from
air motor body (23) with a screwdriver. This will dent the
surface of the body and plates and causing leaks. A puller tool
should be used to remove the plate from the motor body
while maintaining the positions of the shaft.
Always install new gaskets (22) when re-assembling air motor.
Assemble the end plates to the body using an arbor press with
a pusher acting on both races of the bearing while rigidly
supporting the opposite (drive) end of the shaft.

When assembling the air motor to the gearbox, apply grease
to the O.D. of the air motor shaft and the I.D. of the gearbox
shaft. Recommended grease: 41-4458-K.
