1.
Remove vibratory motor, drum support cover, and
splined coupling from vibratory end of drum.
2.
Check the sprocket (1). It must be positioned directly
under the magnetic sensor (2), and must be securely
attached to the drive shaft (4).
3.
Using a feeler gauge, check the gap between magnetic

Adjust gap, if necessary, by loosening locknut (3) and
turning magnetic sensor in or out until correct gap is
obtained.
5.
Retighten locknut (3).
6.
Install splined coupling, drum support cover, and
vibratory motor to vibratory end of drum.
Vibratory Tachometer Calibration
Vibratory Tachometer.
(1) VPM meter. (2) Calibration screw.
1.
Compare frequency of the vibratory system on the
gauge to that of hand held Vibratory Tachometer 133-
0963.
2.
Large dial (1) should be set on #8.
3.
Small calibration screw (2) can be used to calibrate the
gauge. A 2.0 mm (5/64 in) allen wrench should be used
