clearance
NOTE
Inspect lobes and faces of rotor and stator
for scratches, burrs and scoring. Inspect
splines in rotor for chipping, damage or
excessive wear. Use micrometer to meas-
ure thickness (face-to-face) of rotor and
stator. Replace rotor set (11) if lobes,
faces or splines damaged, or if thickness
difference between rotor and stator is
more than 0.002 inch
Place rotor set face down on the lapped
face of the end cover (3). Use a tapered
feeler gage to measure clearance between
rotor and stator at each lobe. Replace
rotor set if clearance is more than 0.007
inch
If abrasive paper is new, it should be rubbed down with a piece
of steel to remove sharp grit which would produce scratches.
WARNING
Dry cleaning solvent (P-D-680), used to clean parts is toxic and
flammable. Wear protective goggles and gloves and use only in a
well ventilated area. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothes
and dont breathe vapors. Do not use near open flame or exces-
sive heat and dont smoke when using it. Failure to do so could
cause serious injury. If you become dizzy while using cleaning
solvent, get fresh air immediately, and get medical attention. If
contact with skin or clothes is made, flush with large amounts of
water. If contact with eyes is made, wash eyes with water immedi-
ately, and obtain medical aid immediately.
WARNING
Wear safety glasses when drying parts with compressed air. Fail-
ure to do so could cause serious injury to eyes and possible blind-
ness. If you hurt your eyes or if a foreign object is blown into
your eyes, seek medical attention immediately.
