After removing the thru bolts, the starting motor
can be divided into three parts—the front bracket,
housing and rear bracket. The spacers shown in
Figure 34 are used for adjustment of the thrust
gap of the armature shaft and are placed between
the rear bracket and the commutator.
These washers are inserted so the steel washer is located in
the commutator side.
FIGURE 34. REMOVING THROUGH BOLTS
The armature can easily be removed from the
front bracket. Be careful not to miss a small steel
washer used in the end of the armature shaft. The
shift lever can be removed along with the ar-
mature when it is removed: In this case, the spring
holder, leverspringsand retainercan betaken out
before the lever. See Figure 35.
FIGURE 35. REMOVING ARMATURE
Remove the ring after driving the pinion stopper
toward the pinion gear using a cylindrical tool as
shown in Figure 36. The overrunning clutch and
the pinion stopper should be removed
simultaneously.
All four brushes have been soldered to the
brushholder in the same way. The brush springs
can be removed from the brushholder.
The pole shoes may be removed if necessary, by
removing the flat head machine screws from the
frame.
