Minimum commutator diameter for reslotting
Undercut (Commutator must have a minimum diameter of 1.65 in (42 mm) for
reslotting):
Dielectric strength
Armature insulation resistance
Starter field coil resistance
Generator field coil resistance

STARTER/GENERATOR ASSEMBLY

1. Slide the bearing retainer (32) onto the output end of the armature shaft (33) (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5).
2. Press a new ball bearing (35) onto the output end of the armature (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5). Press a new ball
bearing onto the commutator end of the armature shaft. See following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• To prevent damage to the retainer, use care while pressing new bearing onto the output end of the
shaft.
• Press against the inner race of the new bearing until it is fully seated.
3. Install the drive end cover (36) onto the armature. Secure the bearing retainer ring (32) (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5).
4. Slide the housing with field coils over the armature. Use the tapped mounting holes to align housing to the
cover, rotate and orient as shown.
NOTE: The terminal insulators should be on the commutator end of the housing.
5. To prevent contact between the brushes and commutator as the commutator cover is installed, and possible
damage to the brushes, lift the brush springs out of the notches in the brushes and pull the brushes back from the
center of the commutator end cover. The springs will rest on the sides of the brushes and help prevent them
from sliding towards the center of the cover (Figure 20-6, Page 20-4).
6. Install the commutator end cover (23) onto the armature shaft. Use the tapped mounting holes to align housing
to the cover, rotate and orient as shown. Install the two M6 x 180 mm bolts (20), and tighten to 60 in·lb (6.8
N·m) (Figure 20-2, Page 20-2).
7. Push the brushes down into the holders. Place springs into the notches in the brushes. Install the brush cover
(30) that has the drain hole in it next to the A2 terminal. Install the remaining three brush covers (29) in the
openings in the commutator end cover (23) (Figure 20-3, Page 20-2).
8. Install the belt pulley (39) onto the shaft, and install the lock washer (40) and M14 nut (41). Tighten the nut to 30
ft·lb (40.7 N·m) (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5).
9. Install the A1 to F1 terminal jumper wire on the starter/generator.
9.1. Loosely attach wire, flat washers, lock washers and nuts onto each terminal.
