1. 8 MAINTENANCE 8 1 Carburetor In order to maintain the precision of your Waukee Carburetor it is suggested that it be cleaned at least once a Month The Waukee Carburetor has been designed to perform this maintenance with ease This maintenance can be performed in minimal time since no special tools are required The only tool needed is a screwdriver Refer to Figure 3 CAUTION Before performing any maintenance make sure all supply gases to the carburetor and compressor are Shut Off Failure to Shut Off the supply gas may expose flammable gases that may be ignited by open flames To clean the carburetor unscrew the top closure ring 29 by hand and carefully remove the sight glass dial indicator 30 and gasket 31 Next unscrew the piston nut 27 by hand or carefully with screw driver Pull the piston 26 out of the carburetor The piston nut is fastened to the piston and will not fall in the carburetor Next by hand pull the upper sleeve 23 bronze bushing out of the carburetor Clean thoroughly with a solvent or good metal polish Clean the piston in a similar manner The segment 22 and lower guide 53 are not removable and must be cleaned in place with a rag soaked in solvent After all parts have been thoroughly cleaned and dried reassemble in this manner With the slot in the upper sleeve 23 lined up with the adjustment screw plunger 8 lower the upper sleeve into the carburetor until it rests on t2. remove the top closure ring 29 sight glass 30 gasket 31 dial 28 and piston 26 Turn the carburetor upside down and remove bottom flange 44 which is held in place by six or eight screws 45 Remove diaphragm and piston rod assembly 39 thru 43 Clean carburetor body and all other parts Pass wire through vent tube in carburetor body and vent hole in diaphragm flange Remove defective diaphragm from piston rod and replace with a new one Refer to Diaphragm assembly on page 10 Care must be exercised in positioning the new diaphragm on the piston rod so that the rod does not bind when it passes through the square hole in the lower guide If position is correct then the vent tube hole in the diaphragm will move an equal distance to the right or left of the vent tube When properly located replace bottom flange and turn carburetor Copyright 2013 United Process Controls Inc All rights to copy reproduce and transmit are reserved Waukee Carburetor Rev 4 Page 12 right side up If assembly has been made correctly and by pass holes are clean a slight hissing of air can be heard when piston rod is moved up or down Continue assembly of piston and other parts as explained below PAT 2865389 Copyright 2013 United Process Controls Inc All rights to copy reproduce and transmit are reserved Waukee Carburetor Rev 4 Page 13 8 2 Diaphragm Assembly To assemble piston shaft 39 assemble in the following sequence diaph
