prop erly
and ·proper
amount
of spacing
washers at
the
rear,
there
should
be
only
a
perceptible
amount of
end
play
to
assure free operation of the armature
.
If there is
too
much end
play,
remove
it
by ad
ding
a
thin
washer, such
as
(29).
To
do
this,
remove the

M.
If
the
old brushes are more than
5/
16"
long,
assemble

N. Check the resistor (53). Test
it
with
an
ohmmeter.
Set the
ohmmeter on the 1 X range and
adjust
it to
zero.
Connect the
ohmmeter
leads to the red and
yellow
resistor leads. If
resistor is
good,
there will be
a
reading of 180
ohms.
Disconnect one ohmmeter lead
