WHEEL GEAR AND PAWL SERVICE
ImPORTANT:
time to avoid mixing of parts. (The R.H. and L.H. ratchet
gears are not interchangeable.) make notes on the position
of washers and snap rings during disassembly.
1. Remove only one wheel from the sweeper.
2. Remove the retaining rings and washers which hold the
ratchet gear onto the brush shaft.
3. (Figure 28) Remove the gear by sliding it off the brush
shaft. (Look for the drive pin, which may fall out of the
brush shaft when the ratchet gear is removed.)
4. To reassemble, insert the drive pin through the hole
near the end of the brush shaft. Make sure the pin slides
back and forth easily in the shaft.
5. Lightly grease the shaft and fill the ratchet gear with
grease. Assemble the ratchet gear back onto the
shaft.
6. Lightly grease the axle and the gear teeth on the wheel,
and then reassemble the wheel. The brushes should
rotate only during forward rotation of the wheel. If the
brushes are driven (rotated) by both forward and reverse
rotation of the wheel, the drive pin is jamming in the
ratchet gear. Disassemble to clean and lubricate the
drive pin and the ratchet gear.
7. Remove the second wheel and repeat the procedure.
