Figure 7-37. Inspecting Tappet(5) Inspect the tappet (20) for possible wear atthe contact areas. The primary contact areas are thetappet contact area and the cam contact area (figure7-37). Replace the tappet if wear indentations exceed0.002’. The tappet thickness measured between theplunger button contact surface and the cam contactarea must be 0.207” or larger.(6) The pump housing (6, figure 7-34) should bewashed in a cleaning solvent. Check all the screwthreads in the housing, damaged threads can be re-paired using thread inserts.(7) Examine the pump housing for cracks orother damage which will cause oil leakage. Replacecracked housings.NOTEThe control unit assembly is serviceable as aunit only. Each control unit assembly is fur-nished with a factory fitted plunger sleeve pin.(8) Holding sleeve of control unit assembly (4),rotate lever; shaft must turn freely. If a bindingcondition exists, wash assembly in a cleaning agent,and repeat procedure. If binding condition is stillpresent, control unit assembly must be replaced. Alsocheck to make certain that weld holding lever to shaftis intact.(9) The flat end of plunger sleeve pin (5) must bechecked for clearance in the mating slot of theplunger sleeve. If the clearance is greater than 0.0015”,the entire control unit must be replaced.TM5-6115-585-34NAVFAC P-8-262-12TO-35C2-3-455-2TM-05684C-34(10) Plunger sleeve pin (5) must fit snug but mustbe free to rotate in control unit assembly.NOTENew part clearance is 0.0002-0.00081". Ifclearance exceeds 0.0015”, replace controlunit assembly.d. Reassembly (see figure 7-34).NOTEReplace all copper and “O" ring gaskets.(1) After all parts have been thoroughly cleanedand inspected and after all worn units have been re-placed, dip the individual parts in clean fuel oil.(2) Invert the hydraulic head (17) and place it ona clean bench so that the head locating slot is forward.(3) Refer to figure 7-38 and align the plungerdrive pin (1) into the plunger (2) so that the head ofthe plunger drive pin is in the line with the distribu-tor slot. Turn the plunger drive pin until its long sideis parallel to the length of the plunger with long endup.Figure 7-38. Assembling Hydraulic Head7-35
