NOTE:
Make sure that the solder is removed quickly (in less than
five seconds).
If a diode is heated to more than lSO·C (3l0·F),
it might be damaged.
4.
Remove
the
condenser
from
terminal "B".
5.
Unsolder the plates "B" and
"L" from the rectifier assembly.
6.
Remove
the mounting
screw
and "B" terminal bolt and remove
the electronic voltage regulator
and brush holder.
The regulator
and
brush
holder
cannot
be
separated.
7.
Remove
the
rectifier
assembly.
8.
Brush
and
brush
spr ing
replacement.
When
only
a
brush
or
brush
spring is to be replaced, it can
be replaced without removing the
stator,
etc.
wi th
the brush holder
assembly raised
as
shown,
unsolder the pig-tail of the brush.
NOTE:
If the terminals "L" and "B" of the rectifier assembly are
bent, damage might result to the rectifier molding.
Therefore,
the plates "B"and "L" should be gently bent at the center.
Alternative method for disassembling the stator winding,
brush-
holder/regulator unit and the integrated circuit/diode rectifier
assembly from the rear bracket.
Once the front bracket and rotor assembly are separated from the
rear half of the alternator:
1.
Insert
a
flat-bladed
screwdriver
between
the
stator
core and
the
edge of the rear
bracket on the same side as the
brush-holder.
Raise this side
of the stator core away from the
bracket so as to open a gap of
about 1/2 inch.
BE CAREFUL NOT
TO ALLOW THE SCREWDRIVER BLADE
TO ENTER FAR ENOUGH TO TOUCH THE
STATOR WINDING.
2.
Maintaining
the 1/2
inch
gap, insert the screwdriver bet-
ween
the
stator
core
and
the
bracket
on
the
rectifier
side
and
move
the
stator
laterally
towards
the brush-holder
for
a
distance
of
1/2
to
3/4
of
an
inch without lifting it from the
bracket.
