To aid disassembly, heat only the commutator end cover
before attempting removal of the armature.
Once heated, place the commutator end cover/armature
assembly in press, giving as much support to the end
cover as possible, and press the armature out of the
bearing.
Push back each brush until its spring (15) is resting
against the side of the brush. This keeps the brushes out
of the way during bearing replacement (Ref Fig. 5 on
page G-3).
Remove internal snap ring (6) and heat the commutator
end cover again. Press bearing (7) out from commutator
end cover (3).
When installing bearing into end cover,
apply pressure against the bearing's
outer race to avoid bearing damage.
Press the new bearing into the commutator end cover
using heat again to aid installation.
Install the snap ring.
If brushes are to be replaced, proceed now to
'Brush Replacement' before installing the
armature.
For proper location, the armature has a positive stop feature.
