(A) ENERGIZING SOLENOID WINDINGS
(B) MEASURING PINION CLEARANCE
Figure 13-11. Adjusting Starter Pinion Clearance
(1) Clean all parts except armature (36, figure 13-9),
field coils (64), electric al solenoid (5), and drive
assembly (29) in cleaning solvent P-D-680, Type II
and blow dry with compressed air.

insulated parts with a brush and solvent and
blow dry. Do not immerse or soak insulation.
(5) Dry armature (36) or field coils (64) in an oven
at 175° to 200°F (29° to 93°C) for 2 hours.
(6) Wipe brushes (57) with clean dry cloth to
remove dirt or oil. Do not use solvent. Replace
any oilsoaked brushes.
CAUTION
Do not use emery cloth or paper for the following
