SERVICE
Assembly and disassembly should be performed by a
service technician who has been factory trained on MBW
equipment. The unit should be clean and free of debris.
Pressure washing before disassembly is recommended.
• Prior to assembly, wash all parts in a suitable cleaner or
solvent.
• Check moving parts for wear and failure. Refer to the
Replacement section in this manual for tolerance and
replacement cycles.
• All shafts and housings should be oiled prior to pressing
bearings. Also, ensure that the bearings are pressed
square and are seated properly.
• All bearings should be replaced when rebuilding any
exciter or gearbox.
• All gaskets and seals should be replaced after any
disassembly.
