C. Bench Tests (See Figures 2 and 3.)
(1) No-Load Test
(a) Connect as shown in Figure 2.
(b) Current measured on voltmeter
should be within specifications
shown in Chart 2. If current is too
high, check the bearing alignment
and end play to make sure there is
no binding or interference. Two or
three sharp raps on the frame with
a rawhide hammer will often help
to align the bearings and free the
armature.
(c) If the starter passes the No-Load
Test, proceed to the Stall-Torque
Test, below.
(2) Stall-Torque Test
To see if the starter is producing its
rated cranking power.
(a) Make test connections and set-up
as shown in Figure 3.
(b) Current measured on voltmeter
should be within specifications
shown in Chart 2.
(3) If torque and current are not within
specifications, overhaul or replace the
starter.
