The solenoid switch can be removed and replaced if
defective.
Periodic Inspection
Cranking motor and solenoid are completely en-
closed in the drive housing to prevent entrance of
moisture and dirt. However, periodic inspection is re-
quired as follows:
1. Inspect terminals for corrosion and loose con-
nections.
2. Inspect wiring for frayed and worn insulation.
3. Check starter mounting bolts for tightness.

move from engine.
