Steps

How to clamp the motor and where to put needle valve assembly. Note:the needle valve should be attatched to the tee in this photo.
The finished shaker Note:the needle valve should be attatched to the tee in this photo.
  • Thread tape is necessary between each connection unless otherwise stated.
  • Always wrap thread tape clockwise when facing the threaded portion.
  • Always keep the end caps on hoses and fittings until you need to take them off. They need to stay protected inside.
  1. Clamp the motor in a vise so that the side opposite the shaft is facing up.
  1. Remove the plug and install the SAE 4 adapter. This connection (and any others with an o-ring in general) doesn't need thread tape. Remove from vise.
    • Your motor will probably have fluid in it, so take care that the fluid doesn't leak everywhere when you remove the plug.
  1. Clamp the needle valve in the vise and tighten a 1/2" nipple into it. Remove from vise.
  1. Clamp the Tee in the vise and tighten the other 1/2" nipple on one side of it then flip it over and tighten the needle valve/nipple to it.
  1. Rotate the tee in the vise and tighten the bushing and then the 1/4" hose into it. Remove from vise.
  1. Clamp the motor in the vise as shown in the photo.
  1. Remove the 2 plugs for the ports.
  1. Install the Tee/needle valve/ hose assembly in the left port when facing the SAE fitting. See photo.
    • Get it tight, but make sure the hose is facing the adapter so that you can get it to the SAE adapter.
  1. Tighten the 1/4" hose to the SAE adapter.
  1. Tighten one 36" hose into the needle valve, and the other into the other port.
