3.Measure:
• Mica

<IV
Out
of
specification
~
Scrape
the
mica
to
the
proper
measurement using a hacksaw
blade
which
has been grounded
to
fit
the
commutator.
~
Mica
undercut:
0.7
mm
(0.03 in)
NOTE:
The mica insulation
of
the
commutator
must
be
undercut
to
ensure
proper
opera-
tion
of
the
commutator.
4.1nspect:
• Armature coil resistances (insulation/con-
tinuity)
Defects
~
Replace the starter
motor.
