I suppose air tools are as much 914-related as jackstands are... And although these days it seems they are considered disposable, this one has grown on me and a rebuild kit is available so I did the work. Maybe someone out there may benefit from the photos.

It's a 3HP motor, which is within a 1/2HP of my push mower.
EDIT: Guess I should mention, it's an ATSCO 1700.

The motor endcaps/bearing cups are line-to-line fit with a key. Once the regulator is out of the way, they can be pushed out with the shaft.

Here's one end off, showing the rotor:

And the other end popped out with the shaft attached. If everything is clean, the vanes will just fall out. Vanes are a replacement item:

The cap and the bearing cup on this end are separate pieces. There's the shaft key for the rotor lying there and the other gasket to be replaced:
