is attached to the Element Assembly. Follow the same

8. End Element Wires
-
To replace the Coiled Element Wire (6A) of the End Elements
(6 &
11),
first remove the burned
out
Element
as
described in Section A, disassembly, then
make sure that the Terminal end of the Bus Bar is clean and free of any small pieces
of wire. Straighten Terminal Strips,
because
the Mica Strip in the center of the
Coiled Element must
be
perpendicular
to
the Reflector in order
to
obtain the proper
heat radiation from the Element. Bend the extreme tip of the new Coiled Element around
Terminal of Bus Bars
to
hold the Element in place while being Silver Soldered or
Spot
Welded. Always connect the end of the Element with the most turns
to
the bottom
Terminal
.
The
Element Wires should
be
ordered
by
grade numbers
as
follows. Grade 2 can
be used
for Elements graded 1 through
3
and grade
5
for Elements grades 4 through
6.
Check
replaced Element for grade number stamped on the Reflector Plate.

-
Release Guide Wires, then remove Screws
(2)
and lift Center Element
Assembly
(10)
with Center Top Plate attached from the mechanism assembly. Replace
Center Element and reassemble.

Center Element Wire
-
To replace the Element Wire
(10J)
on the Center Element Assembly
(10)
place
a
rubber band around the Frame
to
hold the
Mica Strips
(10B, IOC,
&
10H) in
place,
then clip each Wire on one side of the Assembly with
a
pair of
Cutting Pliers.
Remove the Terminal Screws, Mica
(10G) and Porcelain Insulators (10F)
.
To wind new Element Wire
(10
J)
around Frame, locate Porcelain
and Mica Insulator
at
top
of Frame and insert Terminal Screw of
one
end of
the
new Element Wire through
Insulators
and
secure tightly to Frame
with
Washer
and
Nut. To
make the winding
process easier, squeeze Frame
until
each side just barely touches the
Reflector. Wind
new Wire around Frame, locating each bend in its proper place. Note that one side
strip
has
ten slots and the other nine. Locate Porcelain and Mica Insulators and
insert Terminal
Screw
on other end of Wire -through these Insulators and secure
tightly to Frame
with
Washer (10E) and Nut (10D). When tightening Terminal Screws,
hold slotted side with an offset
Screwdriver
to keep it from turning and cutting the
Wire
.
Install Assembly into Toaster and reassemble Toaster. Make bread test and check Bread
Lifter Assembly for proper tension after each cycle. The Bread Lifter Assembly with
bread should take approximately 10 to 12 seconds to raise after Contacts have opened.
