7.2. Disassembly and cleaning the starter motor
pinion
1 - Remove the starter motor [
7.1].
2 - Use a screwdriver to rotate the pinion (1) to
check that it spins and moves co-axially and can
compress the spring (2).
3 - In case the full movement is impeded by dirt:
- remove the dirt by using compressed air;
- spray with lubricant and repeatedly move the
pinion;
- when the movement becomes smooth clean with
compressed air;
- spray again with lubricant.
Avoid using grease or oil as it causes dirt to accu-
mulate.
If the motor becomes noisy it should be replaced
[
7.1].
4- Remove the pinion assembly by undoing the
screws (3) and check the condition of the gears
(Replace the pinion assembly if there is any da-
mage).
