(a) Remove item 1 through 12 as shown onfigure 14-11.(3) Inspect all drive assembly splines and pin-on teeth for nicks and burrs.(4) Test field coils for insulation breakdownwith megger connected between frame and one coilterminal. Minimum resistance reading permissibleis one megohm.Replace starter assembly if coil isdefective.(b) Lift packing (23) and knock out pin (13).Remove cover (14).(c) Disassemble the remaining parts inaccordance with index numbers 16 through 29.(2) Disassemble frame and field coil assemblyas illustrated in figure 14-12.(5) Inspect coil terminal lugs for damagedthreads.(6) Test armature for grounds with a test light.Touch a test light probe to the armature core and theother probe to a commutator bar riser. If test lightglows, armature is grounded. Repeat test for allcommutator bars.(3) Disassemble solenoid assembly as illustra-ted in figure 14-13.14-28. Cleaning and Inspection.a. Cleaning.(7) Test armature for short circuits using agrowler.(1) Blow out all dirt from inside field frameand wipe interior with a clean cloth.(8) Check brushes for excessive wear.CAUTION14-29. Repair.Do not submerge armature, fieldcoils, solenoid or clutch drive insolvent.a. PinionHousingandCommutatorEndHead.(1) Smooth minor scratches, burrs, and dentson machined surfaces using a fine mill file.(2) Clean field coils and frame thoroughly witha cloth dampened with cleaning solvent FederalSpecification P-D-680.Be careful not to damageprotective insulation and fungus coating. Dry thor-oughly with compressed air.(2) Repair damaged threads.(3) Smooth minor rough spots, score marks,and scratches from inside bore of bronze bearingusing a fine stone or crocus cloth dipped in cleaningsolvent, Federal Specification P-D-680.(3) Remove loose particles from armature withcompressed air and wipe with a clean cloth dampenedwith cleaning solvent.Clean commutator lightlywith No. 00 sandpaper and remove all traces of dustwith low-pressure compressed air.b. BrushHolderAssembly. Replace a defectivebrush holder assembly.c. Armature.—(4) Clean brush holders and springs with abrush and cleaning solvent, Federal SpecificationP-D-680, and dry them thoroughly with compressedair. Clean insulation and plate with a clean clothdampened with cleaning solvent and dry with com-pressed air.(1) Resurface commutator removing no morethan 0.005 inch during any one cut and no more than0.002 inch on final cut. Check that final diameter ofcommutator is not less than 1.6470 inches.(2) If commutator diameter is satisfactory,undercut mica to a depth of 0.025 to 0.032 inch belowcommutator surface.(5) Clean solenoid relay assembly parts with aclean cloth dampened with cleaning solvent, FederalSpecification P-D-680, and dry with low-pressurecompressed air.NOTE(6) Clean brushes with a clean, dry cloth only.Do not permit cleaning solvent to come in contactwith the brushes.Use care in undercutting. DO not widencommutator slots by removing metalfrom segments, and do not leave thinedge of mica next to segment.b. InspectionandTests.(3) After the mica has been undercut, removeall copper and mica particles with compressed air.Polish the commutator in a lathe with number 2/0sandpaper while the armature is rotating at 1500rpm. After polishing the armature, check that com-mutator diameter is not less than 1.6470 inches.Replace if diameter is less.(1) Inspect drive assembly drive pinion forbroken, chipped, or badly worn teeth. Replace driveassembly if defective.(2) Inspect internal splines in drive assemblyshell and pinion for cracked, chipped, or broken con-dition.Replace drive assembly if defective.14-19
