Rotate the mounting flange to the desired 
position and reinstall the twelve cap screws.  
Torque the twelve screws to 

9.4 Lb-Ft. (12.7 

Nm). 

 

CAUTION 

Ensure that the O-ring on the pinion housing 
remains in position and is not cut. 
 

2.2.2 Gearbox Assembly Re-Orientation 

 
Remove the four tie bolts that secure the 
gearbox housing assembly to the inlet 
assembly. 
 
Rotate the gearbox housing and pinion 
housings assembly to the desired position. 
 

WARNING 

Do not remove the five radial screws that 
connect the inlet and turbine housing.  The 
inlet and turbine housing assembly must 
remain in the same position, relative to each 
other.   
 

CAUTION 

Ensure that the O-ring on the gearbox 
housing assembly remain in position and is 
not cut. 
 
Reinstall the four tie bolts.  Torque the four 
tie bolts to 

9.4 Lb-Ft. (12.7 Nm). 

 

CAUTION 

Because of the length of the tie bolts, too 
much torque may weaken or break them.  
DO NOT OVER-TORQUE. 
 

2.2.3 Inlet Housing Assembly Re- 
        Orientation 

 
Refer to Section 2.2.2. 
 
After removing the four tie bolts, rotate the 
inlet assembly to the desired position 
relative to the gearbox control ports.  Align 
the components and reassemble per 
Section 2.2.2. 
 

CAUTION 

Ensure that the O-ring on the gearbox 
assembly remains in position and is not cut. 

 

3.0 INSTALLING THE STARTER 

 
A Typical T30 Series installation is shown in 
Figure 2.  The components illustrated may 
vary in shape, but there must at least be a 
start switch, air tank, and air piloted relay 
valve to correctly operate a T30 Series 
starter. 

 

NOTE 

Mounting the air piloted relay valve on the 
starter is preferred in installations where 
space is available. 
 
TDI recommends mounting the air piloted 
relay valve no more than 3 meters (10 feet) 
from the starter’s inlet port, and as close to 
the starter as possible.  If the starter is being 
installed on a vehicle where the air tank is 
within 3 meters (10 feet) of the starter, then 
the relay valve may be mounted on the tank.  
In installations where the tank is more than 3 
meters (10 feet) from the starter, then the 
relay valve must be mounted within 3 meters 
(10 feet) of the starter. 
 
A turbine driven starter does not require 
lubrication in the supply air. Therefore, if a 
vane-type starter motor is being replaced, 
TDI recommends that all lubrication devices 
and lines be removed to minimize flow 
restrictions. 
 

WARNING 

If a fuel (pulse) lubricator has previously 
been installed in the system, disconnect and 
plug the line to eliminate spraying diesel fuel 
on the engine. 
 
Liberally grease the starter’s pinion teeth 
with chassis lube and then mount the T30 
Series starter on the engine.  Tighten all 
mounting hardware as appropriate. 
 
After mounting the starter to the engine, 
attach the supply air line from the tank, the 
control air lines, and the solenoid to the 
ignition system and air piloted relay valve. 
 
TDI recommends installation of a “Glad 
Hand” / quick disconnect for auxiliary 
pressurization of the air tank.
