ransducer Removal

To remove the speed transducer, follow the pro-
cedures for removal of the rear shroud. Then
loosen the compression nut on the transducer
body, and pull the fiber-optic cable out. Using
an 11/16 open-end wrench, turn the speed
transducer CCW to disengage the threads com-
pletely, and then pull the unit straight out of the
air manifold.

Fluid Tube Removal

ube Removal

To remove the fluid tube assembly (Figure 16,
item 3), follow the procedures for removing the
rear shroud and fluid manifold assembly. Once
the fluid manifold is removed, the fluid tube will
be exposed at the rear of the air manifold. Us-
ing a standard 3/4 inch socket, engage the
hexagon flats on the feed tube, and turn CCW
to loosen. After disengaging the threads com-
pletely, pull the feed tube straight out of the air
manifold.

Care should be taken to not over

tighten the fluid tube and strip the threads.

When installing a new or old feed tube,
once it is securely tightened, check the
position of the feed tube in the shaft at the
front of the assembly. If the feed tube is
off center by more than .020-.028 radially,
replace it with another feed tube. If the
feed tube protrudes out of the shaft a dis-
tance other than .207 (-.015 / +.030),
replace the tube with another feed tube.

Fluid pressure must be shut off and

pressure relieved by actuating the valves
prior to removal.

To remove the fluid manifold assembly (Figure
16, item 7) follow the procedures for removal of
the rear shroud. Then disconnect the air pilot
lines at the tube connection of each individual
valve. Disconnect all fluid connections including
the dump line, paint, and solvent supply lines
from the fluid manifold. Then using a medium
flat head screwdriver, remove the mounting
screws (Figure 16, item 9) and pull the manifold
straight back to separate it from the fluid tube.
To remove each individual fluid valve from the
manifold use a 7/8 open-end wrench, and turn
the valve CCW to disengage the threads. Then
pull the valve straight out of the manifold.

Fluid Regulator Removal

To remove the fluid regulator (Figure 16, item
18) follow the procedures for removal of the rear
shroud. Then disconnect the air pilot lines at
the regulator, and the output fluid line at its con-
nection into the fluid manifold assembly (Figure
16, item 7). Disconnect the fluid supply line at
the regulator inlet port, loosen the retaining
screws, and pull the regulator straight out of the
bulkhead.

The four screws holding in the regula-

tor are held captive. They do not back out
completely of the regulator.
