OVERRUNNING CLUTCH CHECK
1. While holding clutch housing, rotate the pinion. Drive
pinion should rotate smoothly in one direction, but should
not rotate in opposite direction. If clutch does not function
properly, replace overrunning clutch assembly.
2. Inspect pinion for wear or burrs. If pinion is worn or burred,
replace overrunning clutch assembly. If pinion is damaged,
also inspect ring gear for wear or burrs.
FRONT AND REAR BRACKET BUSHING CHECK
Inspect bushing for wear or burrs. If bushing is worn or burred,
replace front bracket assembly or rear bracket assembly.
BRUSH REPLACEMENT
1. Check the surface contacting the commutator for
roughness and the brush length.
Limit value: 7.0 mm
2. If the limit is exceeded, replace the brush holder.
ARMATURE TEST
ARMATURE COIL SHORT-CIRCUIT TEST
1. Check that the armature coil is not grounded.
2. Place armature in a growler.
3. Hold a thin steel blade parallel and just above while rotating
armature slowly in growler. A shorted armature will cause
blade to vibrate and be attracted to the core. Replace
shorted armature.
ARMATURE COIL EARTH TEST
Check the insulation between each commutator segment and
armature coil core.
If there is no continuity, the insulation is in order.
