III. Assembly of stator section. REFER TO FIGURE 3.
( ) 1. To one end of each stator rod (6-3/4" long 10-32 threaded rod) install
two hex nuts. Position one nut to leave 5/g" of exposed threads to the
end. Add a second nut to the same ends of each rod leaving approximately
3/8" of exposed threads.
( ) 2. Now start stacking the 24 rectangular stator plates alternately with
the 46 (23 per side) stator spacers. Start with a plate and end with the
24th plate.
( ) 3. Install hex nuts on the open end of the rod to hold this stack together,
not too tight. We will return to adjust later.
IV. Final assembly of capacitor. REFER TO FIGURE 4.
( ) 1. Mount the stator plate assembly to the insulator on the front plate as-
sembly. Insert the 3/8" exposed threads thru the holes in the insulator
and fasten with another hex nut on the front side of the insulator, Do
not over tighten.
( ) 2. Install the rotor assembly in the front plate thru the bushing after in-
stalling the tension spring washer on the shaft end. This washer is in-
stalled so that the domed side is against the fixed bushing on the rotor
shaft.
The
slotted
end
of
this
washer
will
be
in
contact
with
the
in-
side
of
the
front
plate.
Some
lubricant
(oil
or
grease
-
Vaseline)
should
be
applied
to
the
shaft
and
between
the
washer
and
shaft
bushing.

Install
a
hex
nut
on
the
rear
end
of
each
stator
rod
leaving
about
5/8"
of
thread
exposed
on
the end
of
each
rod.

4.
Install
the
rear
end
plate
and
insulator
assembly
by
fastening
the
stator
rods
through
the
matching
holes
in
the
insulator.
Attach
with
hex
nuts
-
