9. Place the fingers of each hand in the gear bores of pres-
sure plate (15). and carefully lift the pressure plate straight
out of body (16). Do nor force or pry the pressure plate
when removing it. Remove sealing strips (7) from pressure
plate (15).
10. Remove back-up rings (9) and O-rings (8).
INSPECTION. After the motor has been disassembled,
wash all parts in a suitable solvent and dry with compressed
air. All parts should be visually inspected for excessive
wear, cracks, or any other damage which would make them
unfit for further service, with particular attention to the
following:
1. The gears will wear a groove in the sides of the body
(item 16). The depth of this groove should be measured. If
the depth of the groove is more than 0.005 inch (0.127
mm), the motor must be replaced.
2. Inspect the pressure plates for excessive wear. If deep
curved wear marks are visible, the pressure plates should be
replaced.
3. Measure the gear journals at a point next to the face of
the gear, and at a point 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) or more from
the gear face. Compare the two measurements. If the differ-
ence in the measurements is more than 0.001 inch (0.025
mm), the motor must be replaced. Using the same proce-
dure, measure the journal on the other side of the gear.
REASSEMBLY. To reassemble a motor which has been
