or high temperature method. This might dam-
age insulation so that a short or ground would
subsequently develop, and will remove lubri-
cant originally packed in the overrunning clutch
so that clutch would soon be ruined.

damage and make necessary repairs or replace
unserviceable

procedure.
If
field coils were
removed,
use pole shoe spreader (KMO 579) and pole
shoe screwdriver to install them, to avoid dis-
torting field frame and to insure proper tight-
ening of pole shoe screws. See figure 10-65.
Before installation of solenoid switch check
the shift lever spring for proper tension. A
weak spring may cause sluggish disengagement
of drive clutch pinion in cold weather, par-
ticularly if the shaft
is
gummed up. With spring
scale connected to hole in upper end of shift
lever, the pull at start of travel should be 9 to
12 pounds and at end of
travel should
be 28 to
35
pounds.
