Brush Replacement - Honda GX690 Workshop Manual

STARTING SYSTEM

BRUSH REPLACEMENT

Cut off the brush lead (1) at the point shown and
remove the brush (2).
Remove the remaining brush lead and deposited solder
from the terminal.
Hold a new brush (1) in the same direction of the
removed brush and put a new plate (2) over the new
brush and terminal (3) and press it using a pair of pliers
as shown.
Solder the plate on the terminal.
• Before soldering, heat the pressed part of the plate
well to make sure solder reaches the end of the
pressed part.
• Prevent solder from flowing down the brush lead.
• Do not allow solder to run down onto the field
winding of the yoke.
• File the brush so that the brush and commutator can
fit using an emery paper #500 or #600.
