STORAGE
If the Clamshell is to be stored or if it will remain out of service for a significant
period of time (30 days or more): clean, lubricate, and spray it with a rust.
Remove the airline Quick disconnect and spray it with a lightweight oil.
Squirt oil into the male Quick Disconnect.
Reconnect the airline and turn on the Air Motor for 1 or 2 seconds to disperse oil
throughout the vanes and rotor.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE MAIN BEARING PRE-LOAD
(See Bearing Adjustment Screw locations)
Loosen all Bearing Adjustment Lock Screws (all letters).
Loosen all Bearing Adjustment Set Screws about 1/2 turn (all numbers).
Turn in Bearing Adjustment Set Screws (all circled) so that they are snugged tightly.
This insures that the Bearing is fully pushed forward.
Lightly turn in the remaining Bearing Adjustment Set Screws in the order shown until
they all touch the Bearing.
Relax Bearing Adjustment Set Screws (all circled) and resnug them so that all of the
Bearing Adjustment Set Screws are evenly loaded against the Bearing.
Connect the air supply and apply power to the Clamshell so that it is running at full
speed.
Adjust the Bearing Adjustment Set Screws (all numbers) so that the Clamshell
rotation slows slightly. (See Picture for recommended sequence).
