SECTION 5
DISASSEMBLY, CLEANING, AND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Section 5
is
a detailed step-by-step procedure for disassembling, cleaning,
and
assembling the TRIVAC dual-stage
vane
pu'mps.
It
is
to
be
used
in
conjunction with the troubleshooting chart (Table
6-1)
for pump repair.
MODULE REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
NOTE: The correct replacement module
for
your pump is listed in the parts list (see Section 7).
NOTE: If your pump has the anti-suckback solenoid valve modification,
see
the supplement (PIN 722-78-031)
that came with the pump for special instructions
on
replaCing the pumping module.
If
you
prefer to replace the *module rather than repair it, proceed
as
follows:
1.
Use the Section 5-B instructions for disassembly.
2.
Do
Steps F-12,
F-13,
and
F-14
(except
B-8).
3.
Add the proper pump fluid (see Section
5-A-1)
as
follows (see Figure
1-1).
a.
Using an 8-mm allen wrench, screw a plug screw (8) with flat gasket (9) into each oil drain
port.
b.
Pour pump fluid into the exhaust port (6)
or
an
oil fill port until the fluid level
is
halfway up the
oil level glass (15)
or
oil sight gauge (72).
c.
NOTE: The pump may run
nOisily
until the pump fluid
has
time to flow into the module.
Run
the pump for
112
to 1 minute
and
then turn it off.
d.
Add additional pump fluid
as
necessary
to
bring the pump fluid level halfway up the oil level
glass (15)
or
between the L and the H marks on the oil sight qauge (72).
e.
Using
an
8-mm allen wrench, screw a plug screw (8) with flat gasket (9) into each oil fill port.
4.
Do
Steps
F-16
and
F-17.

·The module
is
the unit made
up
primarily of the shaft, rotors, vanes, coupling, centrifugal switch,
end
plates, pump cylinders,
and center bearing. Figure 5-3 shows a module.
tThe
terms
"lubricating
fluid,"
"pump
