GENERAL DESCRIPTION
WARNING
PRESSURE AS INDICATED ON PUMP MODEL PLATE.
WARNING
FOR ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION.
This manual only covers the air motor section. It is one of
four documents which support an ARO pump. Replacement copies of these forms are available upon request.
650XXX-X Pump Model Operator’s Manual.
General Information for Air Operated or Hydraulically
Lower Pump End Operator’s Manual.
Air or Hydraulic Motor Operator’s Manual.
The 4-1/4” air motor is a general purpose power unit and
is used with many 2-ball, 4-ball and chop check pumps. It
utilizes tie rod type construction for easy breakdown and
it connects to the various lower ends via tie rods for easy
operation. Consult pump model operator’s manual for
speci c instructions. It is recommended that a mu er be
connected to the exhaust port to reduce noise to acceptable OSHA standards.
Filtered and oiled air will allow the air motor to operate
more e ciently and yield a longer life to operating parts
and mechanisms. A filter capable of filtering particles
larger than 50 microns should be used with an oiler. Keep
the oiler supplied with a good grade of S.A.E. no. 90W
non-detergent gear oil, set at a rate not to exceed 1 or 2
drops per minute.
NOTICE: Do not operate the air motor above the recommended air pressure of 150 p.s.i. (10.3 bar) or 75 cycles
per minute. The air motor may be rated di erently in the
next assembly. Check the pump model plate.
DO NOT EXCEED MAXIMUM OPERATING
REFER TO GENERAL INFORMATION SHEET
Operated Pumps.
Figure 1
MAINTENANCE
The air / hydraulic motor is completely separate from the
lower pump end. This helps to keep the motor from being
contaminated by the material being pumped. Periodically,
ush entire pump system with a solvent that is compatible
with the material being pumped.
Keep solvent cup lled with this compatible solvent. This will
keep material from drying on the piston rod, which would
drag thru the packings, ruin them and eventually scour the
piston rod.
Provide a clean work surface to protect sensitive internal
moving parts from contamination from dirt and foreign matter during disassembly and reassembly.
Before reassembling, lubricate parts as required. When assembling “O” rings, or parts adjacent to “O” rings, exercise
care to prevent damage to “O” rings and “O” ring groove surface.

For simplification of ordering and stocking, a Y325-210 “O”
ring, Y325-220 “O” ring and a Y186-16 “U” cup will be included
in 61268 service kit. When repairing the motor, use only the
one that is needed.
All of the service parts are the same for all motors except the
lower piston rod packing.
NOTE: It is highly recommended that a 90350 installation
tool be used. This will greatly ease installation of (38) adapter
and piston valve and will reduce the chances of damage to
the (20) “U” cup. A damaged (20) “U” cup can usually lead to
air motor failure.

30. Place (17) washer over (36) extension rod and onto (38)
adapter.
31. Clean with solvent and put Loctite 271 on the threads of
(38) adapter. Screw (31) valve piston onto (38) adapter
and tighten (see gure 4, page 3).
32. Push the assembled (38) adapter and (31) valve piston

35. Align the two screw holes and secure (33) gland assembly to (19) head assembly with two (6) screws and two (7)
lock washers.
36. Insert (13) insert spring assembly into the (19) head
assembly, with the hooks down and the nylon roller toward (31) valve piston.
37. Apply grease to both (11 and 14) inserts and place them
in position (see gure 10) with legs of insert toward (31)
valve piston and the larger, (14) insert, located in front of
the larger diameter nylon roller. Also, the nylon roller on
the (13) insert spring assembly should be between the
legs of both (11 and 14) inserts.
38. Apply grease to gasket side of (12) valve plate and put
(15) gasket on (12) valve plate. To determine the correct
side, the screw holes nearest the top and bottom of (12)
valve plate are toward the exhaust port on the (19) head
assembly. Also, the (12a) roll pins in (12) valve plate are
at the top.
39. Hold the (11 and 14) inserts against the (31) valve piston

larger holes in the (12) valve plate are located in front of
the larger or (14) insert. Also, be sure the pins are located
at the top of the valve plate.
40. Hook the round coil in (13) insert spring assembly over
the (12a) roll pins (see gure 10).
41. Hook the bottoms of the (13) insert spring assembly into
the holes on the side of (12) valve plate (see gure 10).
42. Insert (9) valve guide against the face of (12) valve plate.
The legs of (9) valve guide should be down, with the leg
having the threaded hole nearest the bottom located
nearest the exhaust port of the (19) head assembly.
43. Place (5) washer on each of the four (4) screws and insert
into the provided holes and tighten evenly across the
corners. NOTE: To ease the alignment of the holes, an “O”
ring pick is helpful.
44. Install (10) gasket in (8) air motor cap and secure with six
(3) screws.
45. Place (2) de ector on the exhaust port of (19) head assembly, with the opening down, and secure with four (1)
screws.
