Rotary exhauster

I have been working on lifts for over 40 years and never heard of a rotary exhauster. What the heck does it do??

Jay,

The rotary exhauster is used to provide vacuum for vehicle brake system. This is mounted on the right side of the engine as you sit in the seat. I guess you have a Perkins engine?

Engines that are diagnosed with excessive crankcase blow-by must first have the rotary exhauster removed from the engine and the engine
run for this diagnosis to be valid. A brake booster diaphragm failure may also cause the rotary exhauster front seal to be pushed out causing
crankcase pressurization. Good Luck

The hard to do we do right away. The impossible just takes a little longer.

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
