Disassembly and Reassembly of the Pulse Unit

Disassembly

1. Remove the Front Casing (left-hand thread) from the tool.
2. Remove the Purple Cushion from the Pulse Unit and the Pulse Unit from the Handle. Be sure not to lose the Adjustment Spacer, Spring, and/or Operating Rod that are between the Handle and Pulse Unit.
3. Remove the Oil Fill Plug and extract all of the oil with the VCE-1-1 from the Pulse Unit. Note: The Oil Fill Plug on the UAT-30D is in the Rear Liner Plate.
4. Place the Pulse Unit in the PTRF-1-1 or the Stand for Holding Pulse Unit and remove the Liner Casing Setter using the PTRF-039, PTRF-040, PTRF-041, PTRF-042 or Disassembly and Assembly of Liner Casing Setter (right-hand thread).
5. While holding the Pulse Unit with the Anvil up, tap on the Anvil with a Dead Blow Hammer to remove the Rear Liner Plate, Anvil, Driving Blades, Driving Blade Rollers, Relief Valve Spring, Relief Valve Ball, Check Valve Spring, and Check Valve Ball. Now remove the Piston from the Rear Liner Plate.
6. Remove the Front Liner Plate and Liner from the Liner Casing. You can use the Anvil with a set of V-Blocks on the Arbor Press by placing the Anvil driver end-first through the Front Liner Plate and pressing on the back of the Anvil to push the Front Liner Plate and Liner out of the Liner Casing. Note: Always make sure that the Front Liner Plate and Liner come out of the Liner Casing as one piece or you may cause serious damage to the Liner Casing. Never push too hard on the Arbor Press. Always push the Front Liner Plate and Liner back and forth in the Liner Casing until the Front Liner Plate and Liner move freely from the Liner Casing.
7. Separate the Front Liner Plate and Liner. Note: On the UAT-30D, 40, 50 & 60 series tools, the Front Liner Plate is made up of two pieces: the Front Liner Plate and the Liner Casing Spacer.
8. Remove the Relief Valve Spindle (left-hand thread), Relief Valve Pin, Relief Valve, Pressure Valve Body, Pressure Valve Spring, Pressure Valve Spring Collar, and Locator Pins from the Liner.
9. Remove all O-rings and Supporter Rings. Clean and inspect all parts. Resurface only those parts having burs on them. If any parts show deep grooving or surface wear, they will need to be replaced.

Assembly

1. You will find all O-rings, Supporter Rings, and Springs needed for rebuild of the Pulse Unit in a Pulse Unit Repair Kit (PRK). To order a PRK, you would order the model number of tool plus dash PRK (i.e., UAT-70-PRK).
2. Lubricate all O-rings with Pulstar Oil.
3. Install the O-ring on the Relief Valve using the O-ring Install Fixture and install the Relief Valve into the Liner lining up the slot in the Relief Valve with the hole in the Liner and install the Relief Valve Pin. Note: Be careful not to cut the O-ring on the Relief Valve.
4. Install the Pressure Valve Spring Collar, Pressure Valve Spring and Pressure Value Body into Liner. Note: Small end of spring goes towards the Pressure Valve Body.
5. Install the Relief Valve Spindle into the Relief Valve and install the O-ring on the Relief Valve Spindle (left-hand thread) and Supporter Ring into the Front Liner Plate. Note: The Supporter Ring is not used on the UAT-40, 50 & 60.
6. Install two Locator Pins into the front of the Liner.
7. Install the Anvil SU-ring and Supporter Ring into the Front Liner Plate and install the Front Liner Plate onto the Liner. Note: Make sure that you work the Relief Valve Spindle O-ring up into the Front Liner Plate by turning the Relief Valve Spindle back and forth. Note: On the UAT-30D, 40, 50 & 60 series, you install the Liner Casing Spacer onto the Liner. Install the Front Liner Plate after the Anvil and Driving Blades have been installed into the Liner.
8. Install the Driving Blade Springs, Driving Blades, and Driving Blade Rollers into the Anvil and into the Driving Blade Install Fixture.
9. Put the proper Anvil Sleeve Fixture over the drive end of the Anvil and install the Anvil into the Liner and through the Front Liner Plate removing the Driving Blade Install Fixture. As you do this, make sure to keep the Nylon piece of the Driving Blade Install Fixture tight against the Anvil.
10. Install two Locator Pins into the rear of the Liner, the Check Valve Spring and Check Valve Ball into the back of the Anvil, and the Relief Valve Ball and Relief Valve Spring into the back of the Relief Valve in the Liner.
11. Install the O-ring onto the Rear Liner Plate and install the Rear Liner Plate onto the Liner. Note: If the Check Valve Cover was removed from the Rear Liner Plate when reinstalling the Check Valve Cover back into the Rear Liner Plate, make sure that the hole in the side of the Check Valve Cover is 180 degrees out from the hole inside of the Rear Liner Plate, and apply a light coat of Loctite 626 to the Check Valve Cover before installing.
12. Holding the hex end of the Rear Liner Plate in a vise, install the Front Liner Plate O-ring, and now install the Liner Casing over the Anvil and onto the assembly.
13. Clean the threads on the Liner Casing and Liner Casing Setter with a degreaser or Isopropyl Alcohol. Put a small amount of thread locker (i.e., Loctite 243) on the Liner Casing Setter and install it into Liner Casing.
14. Note: If you use Isopropyl Alcohol to clean the threads, it will cause the thread locker to set up in about 10-15 minutes.
15. Now, using the PTRF-1-1 and following the Fill and Draw sheet, apply the proper amount, press load to the Rear Liner Plate, and tighten the Liner Casing Setter to the proper torque. Note: Make sure that you use the proper Press Cap when applying the press load to the Pulse Unit.
16. Once you are sure that the thread locker has set-up: Make sure that the Torque Adjuster is turned all the way out counter-clockwise, fill the Rear Liner Plate with Pulstar oil, and insert the Piston stepped-end down into the Rear Liner Plate. Put the Pulse Unit into the VC-101-2A Vacuum Fill Tank, making sure that the Pulstar oil is about one-half of an inch below the oil fill hole on the Pulse Unit. Note: The UAT-30D goes into the Tank Anvil-side down.
17. Now, cycle the Vacuum Fill Tank. Note: The gauge on the tank should read 29 in.Hg. or above.
18. Now, pull the Pulse Unit out of the Vacuum Fill Tank. Tip the Pulse Unit on its side to remove the excess oil from the top of the Pulse Unit so that it is level with the top of the oil fill hole. Following the Fill & Draw sheet, remove the recommended cc’s of oil from the Pulse Unit and install the Oil Fill Plug. Note: Make sure that you pull up lightly on the plunger of the syringe as you put the needle into the Pulse Unit. This will keep you from displacing the oil out of the Pulse Unit when you put the needle into the Pulse Unit.
19. Install the Purple Cushion onto the front of the Pulse Unit. Make sure that the Adjusting Spacer, Spring, and Operating Rod are back in the Handle and install the Pulse Unit and Casing onto the Handle.
20. Note: The torque for the Front Casing is 16-24 Nm for the UAT-30D ~ UAT-80, 25-38 Nm for the UAT-90 ~ UAT-130, and 13-19 Nm for the bolts on the UAT-200. Apply Loctite 243 to threads on the Casing Connector.
21. You are now ready to test the tool.
