Radial Piston Motor MCR10, Series 30

The following instructions are intended to lend assistance for inspection and repair of MCR units.
These units are manufactured with great care and with adherence to defined tolerances to the high-
est manufacturing accuracy, and therefore the following points must be given particular attention.
The work should be performed only by qualified service personnel.

General Disassembly Procedure

1. When removing the unit from the machine immediately close all openings with plugs to prevent dirt from
entering the unit.

2. For ordering of spare parts, make note of all numbers and codes on the name plate.

3. Remove all external dirt and debris with cleaning solvents.

4. Provide a clean work area and proper tools.

5. Use only “lint free” cleaning rags.

6. Mark parts before disassembling components to ensure correct assembly.

7. The appearance of the parts removed often gives an indication of the system condition. For example; scored
sliding surfaces and heavy abrasion may indicate a contaminated system. Discoloration of components is a
sign of improper fluid viscosity.

Radial Piston Motor MCR10, Series 30

General Assembly Procedure

1. Use only genuine Rexroth spare parts. We recommend the use of preassembled, coordinated and tested
component groups. The required component groups and seal kits should be selected from the spare parts list
and ordered by referencing the name tag details.

2. Assembly should be carried out in a clean working environment.

3. Assembly is carried out in reverse order to disassembly unless otherwise stated.

4. Rexroth suggests that seals should not be reused.

5. Apply petroleum oil based hydraulic oil to components before assembly.

6. Tighten bolts with torque wrench according to specification.

7. When carrying out disassembly and assembly instructions refer to appropriate drawings.

8. Plug all ports upon completion of repair.

17. With force still applied, fit split ring (10) onto shaft (1). Using feeler gauges, determine “X” dimension.
Reference page 7.

18. Remove split ring (10), and fit required washer (3). Washer should be .002”–.004” greater than “X” dimen-
sion. Replace split ring (10).
