2.17 RACINE PROPORTIONAL AIR GAP

ADJUSTMENT

NOTE: The assembly in Figure 2-17. includes select fit parts

in order to maintain a proper air gap. These parts
must remain as an assembly or if disassembled,
controlled to ensure that these component parts are
not intermixed with similar parts.

In the event that parts do become exchanged or you
suspect the air gap to be incorrect (Too much air gap
will result in loss of auxiliary power operation and
less than full spool shift; too little air will result in
erratic operation.), it may be checked and adjusted
using the procedure below.

All parts must be clean and properly assembled
before making these checks.

1.

With all parts assembled as shown in Figure 2-17.,
use a depth mike or other measuring instrument to
determine the distance from the end of the guide
tube to the exposed end of the plunger. Record this
dimension.

2.

Remove the plunger and poppet. With the poppet
removed, install the plunger and check the distance
from the end of the guide tube to the exposed end of
the plunger.

3.

Subtract the first dimension from the second dimen-
sion, this will be the amount of air gap.

4.

The correct air gap is 0.45-.5mm with 0.5 mm pre-
ferred. If the air gap is excessive, it may be reduced
by using a brass drift and hammer. Lightly tap the
end of the plunger with all parts assembled.
Recheck the air gap.

5.

If the air gap is less than recommended, replace the
nose cone assembly.
