b. If armature (2) is worn beyond limits
shown in table 9-2, assemble starter
motor (page 9-16) and replace,
c. Put armature (2) in lathe and position
cutting tool (3) and dial indicator (4)
against commutator (1).

UNDERCUT MICA (5) TO l/32-INCH
(0.794 MM) DEEP AND l/32-INCH (0.794
a, Turn lathe on. Watch indicator (4). Cut
0,005-inch (0.0127 mm) off commutator (1)
with tool (3). Turn lathe off. Check
commutator (1) for clean smooth surface.
b. Repeat step a and make final cut
0.002-inch (0.005 mm). Watch indicator (4)
to make sure total indicator runout is
within limits shown in table 9-2.
c. Turn off lathe. Pull tool (3) and indicator
(4) away from commutator (1).
d. Start grooves in mica (5) with file.
