M3 - Replace Traversing Drive Motor, Traversing Gear and Traverse Idle
Gear
Ensure that the lift is fully supported at all times. Take great care in
protecting the PCB. There is a tendency to turn the lift over, thus
damaging or breaking the aluminum standoffs that support the PCB.
1. The traverse idle gear may be most easily removed by first removing the trolley wheels
with which they mesh – follow the instructions of section M2 to remove the trolley
wheels.
2. Remove the C800/C1000 lift covers as per all of section B1.
3. Use a M2.5 Allen key to unfasten and remove the M3 screw & nut with the traverse idle
gear.
4. The traverse idle gear can be replaced now & refastened; the trolley wheels should be
now placed back into position (ref. section M2).
5. If the traversing drive motor or gear require service, follow steps 1-4 of section M1
NOTING only to remove the shaft only as much as to disengage it from the one wall of
the lift motor and ensure BOTH batteries with their brackets are removed.
6. Use a 9/64” Allen key to remove the four screws securing the traversing gear bracket to
the gearbox. The bracket and the traversing motor can now be removed.
7. The traversing gear can be removed by pulling it off of the traversing motor shaft by
hand.
8. With the traversing gear removed, the traversing motor can be removed by unfastening
the 3 #12-24 hex head screws with a ratcheting wrench and extension with a 5/16”
socket.
9. Follow the previous steps in reverse to mount the new traverse motor & gear and to slide
the gear box plates back into place to fasten them.
10. Reconnect the wire harnesses, airline tubes on the auxiliary board and connect the
battery to test the system before re-assembly.
