NOTE
Bend bracket
carefully.
Do not correct
by bending
back if
bent too much;
this weakens the
bracket.
g. Position rotor
so keyway is at
12 o'clock position
and red painted
distributor teeth
are visible in
timing windows.
h. Loosen
drive shaft
nut and position the
Rotor Holding
Tool (Bendix part
number
11-8465)
under
washer or bushing
on drive
end of rotor
shaft with
clamp at
4 o'clock
position so any shaft
deflection caused
by clamping action
will be in a
plane parallel to
breaker contacts.
Tighten nut to secure
holding tool
to shaft. Check
to insure proper
location
of keyway
and tighten
adjusting
screw of holding
tool to
lock rotor in
position.
i. Loosen rotor
holding tool and
turn magnet in direction
of rotation
until adjacent
"R"
("E" gap)
mark is aligned
with pointer
and lock
in position.
Both red painted
teeth
should
be approximately
centered
in timing
windows.
NOTE
The
use of the timing light
unit, part number 11-9110-1
available from
Bendix will simplify
the internal timing
procedure
and breaker
synchronization.
j.
Connect the timing
light black lead
to any unpainted
surface of the
magneto.
k.
Connect the
red timing
light lead
to the left breaker
terminal
and the
green lead to
the
right main breaker terminal.
