e.
Assembly. To assemble the Control Panel
Group, proceed as follows:
(1)
Position control panel on frame, support it
and place air cooler (Figure 8-10) in
position
behind
control
panel.
Align
mounting holes. If removed, place screws
(16, Figure 8-7) through bar (19). Install
washers (18) on screws (16). Insert screws
(16) through mounting holes and attach
nuts (17). Install screws (8) and nuts (9,
11).
(2)
Place fan guard (5, Figure 8-10) in place
over compressor shaft, remove screws (19,
Figure 8-11) from hub of compressor.
Attach fan (15) to hub using screws (19).
(3)
Position washers (2, 3 and 4, Figure 8-10)
and fan guard (5). Using screw (1) attach
fan guard (5).
(4)
Install mounting screws (1, Figure 8-9)
through control panel side, add spacers (3)
and rupture disc (Figure 8-9) onto screws
(1). Install nuts (2). Do not tighten rupture
disc assembly at this time.
(5)
Install instrument panel assembly (6, Figure
8-7) over shock mounts (7). Add lock
washer (5) and install nuts (4). Tighten
nuts.
(6)
Connect rupture disc to unloader control
box tube assembly (27, Figure 8-39) at
rupture disc (3, Figure 8-7). Connect
rupture disc to compressor output pressure
gauge tube assembly (28, Figure 8-39).
(7)
Connect rupture disc to dehydrator bleed
valve tube assembly (26, Figure 8-39).
Connect mechanical filter to rupture disc
tube assembly (25, Figure 8-39). Tighten
nuts (2, Figure 8-9) on screws (1).
(8)
Assemble control panel group (Figure 8-7)
to the air compressor unit frame using
panel mounting nuts, washers and screws.
(9)
Place throttle cable (11, Figure 8-30)
through the throttle cable hole in the control
panel from the front of the panel. Install
cable body lock washer and hex nut, tighten
nut.
(10) Install cable clips (do not tighten). Thread
throttle cable wire (11) through wire stop
(13, Figure 8-30). Assure that the throttle
lever is in the closed position. (Throttle
lever pointing toward fan belt end of
engine). Tighten screw in wire stop (13).
Install screws and nuts for tubing clips (11)
and tighten.
(11) If clutch rod bushing was removed from the
control panel, install and secure. Insert
clutch rod (1, Figure 8-19) through bushing
from the front of the panel. Install nut (5)
and clevis (4) on rod end. Position clevis
(4) over clutch shaft assembly (12), insert
clevis pin (3) and install cotter pin (2). For
clutch rod adjustment see paragraph 5-15,
Section V.
(12) Connect engine oil pressure gauge to
unloader control box wire assembly at
pressure gauge (9, Figure 8-8).
