Armature short circuit test
Check the armature for short circuit by placing it on a
growler tester. Hold a piece of hacksaw blade against the
armature core while slowly rotating the armature. A short-
circuited armature will cause the blade to vibrate and to be
attracted by the core. If the hacksaw blade is attracted or
vibrates, the armature, is short circuited, and must be
replaced.
