2) Cleaning Slip rings
The slip ring surfaces must be uniformly bright.
Slip rings showing black spots, excessive wear,
or uneven wear must be repaired. A stained slip
ring lowers generator efficiency and output volt-
age. Polish the slip rings with fine sandpaper while
turning the rotor until rough spots disappear. Care
should be taken not to touch the rotor coils with
the sandpaper.
