2.
Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
3.
Using an air compressor, blow out any debris
from under the brake pole and around the brake
spacers
(Figure
79).

4.
Check the condition of the wire-harness leads,
connectors, and terminals.
Note:
Clean or repair as necessary.
5.
Verify that 12 V is present at the clutch connector
when the blade-control switch (PTO) switch is
engaged.
6.
Measure the gap between the rotor and
armature. If the gap is greater than 1 mm (0.04
inch), do the following steps:
A.
Loosen both brake-mounting bolts 1/2 to 1
full turn as shown in
Note:
Do not remove the brake pole from
the field shell/armature. The brake pole
has worn to match the armature and needs
to continue to match after you remove the
shim to ensure proper brake torque.

C.
Using a pneumatic line, blow out any debris
from under the brake pole and around the
brake spacers.
D.
Torque each bolt (M6 x 1) to 12.3 to 13.7
N∙m (9.5 to 10.5 ft-lb).
E.
Using a 0.25 mm (0.01 inch) thick feeler
gauge, verify that a gap is present between
the rotor and the armature face on both
sides of the brake pole as shown in
82
and
Figure
Note:
Due to the way the rotor and the
armature faces wear (peaks and valleys) it
is sometimes difficult to measure the gap
accurately.
