CAM AND/OR INPUT SHAFT
REPLACEMENT:
INPUT SHAFT REMOVAL:
Instructions for removing the cam and input
shaft assume the follower wheel will not be
removed. If the follower wheel will be
removed, proceed to the section titled
"Follower Wheel and/or Output Bearing
Replacement" in this Service Manual.
Otherwise, proceed with the following steps.
If the machine builder has provided access
holes to the cam follower screws, complete
removal of the support structure and fixtures
is not mandatory. The cam can be supported
during removal with a threaded rod through
one of the cam follower stud holes.
Otherwise, the support structure and fixtures
must be removed, or the support structure
and fixtures can be lifted two to three feet
above the unit and supported by appropriate
scaffolding. CAMCO recommends using pro-
fessional machinery riggers for this purpose.
The assistance of a CAMCO trained service-
man is recommended.
