sprockets are not interchangeable.) Make notes on the
position of washers and snap rings during disassembly.
Remove the dust coverby remov!ngthe two rivets
which fasten itto the wheel housing.(It isnot necessary
to remove the dust cover ifyou are onlycleaningand
lubricatingthe chain and sprockets.)
Remove the retainingringsand washers which holdthe
sprocketsontothe shafts.
Remove the chainand bothsprockets, holdingthem in
positionand slidingthem offbothofthe shafts. (Lookfor
the drivepin,which may fall out of the brushshaft when
the ratchetsprocketis removed.) See figure 28.
To reassemble, insertthe drive pinthroughthe hole at
the end of the brush shaft. Make sure the pinslides
back and forth easily inthe shaft.
Ughtlygrease both shafts and the chain, and fill the
ratchetsprocket with grease. Assemble the chain with
both sprockets back onto the shafts.
Lightlygrease the axle 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 ratchetgear. Disas_sembieand clean
