Clean all metal parts with FederalSpecification P-D-680 and dry thoroughly. Usesclean cloth to clean the stator frame. Use low pres-sure compressed air (10 to 15 pounds pressure) toremove dust and dirt from inside the frame and core,and from the rotor windings.b. Inspection. Proceed as follows(1) Inspect stator frame for cracks and burredmating surfaces.(2) Inspect rotor and stator of generator andexciter for loose, frayed, or burned windings.(3) Inspect coupling disks and fan for distor-tion and excessive wear.(4) Inspect for missing or defective hardware.(5) Inspect rotating diode assembly for brokendiode cases. Test diodes per paragraph 14-10.9-4. Generator Repair and Rebuild.a. GeneratorRepair. Proceed as follows:(1) Replace or rebuild all defective parts (re-fer to paragraph 9-2d for disassembly information.)To remove coils from an iron core, it is recom-mended that the part be heated in a moderate oventemperature (1500 C) to facilitate removal. Singlecoils should not be replaced as adjacent parts ofthe winding may be damaged during coil removal.(2) Apply varnish to any damaged areas ofinsulation.(3) Replace damaged exciter rotor or stator.b. GeneratorRebuilding(50/60Hz). Proceed asfollows:(1) Statorwindingprocedures.(a) Single wires may be spliced by brazing.The splice is to be insulated by sliding sleeving overthe wire prior to brazing and relocating the sleevingover the splice after completion. The sleeving isto extend a minimum of 1/2-inch beyond the bare un-insulated portion of wire. The sleeting material iSto be the same as that used for cross-overs on theconnection end. Splices shall be made in the endturn of the coil only and shall not be made in thestraight leg. Where more than one splice is requir-ed, the second splice must not occur on the samecoil end and must not occur in adjacent coils. Wheremore than one splice is necessary in the same coilor an adjacent coil, the splice may be made in theconnection end of the coil.Change 1 9-5
