b. If armature (2) is worn beyond limits
shown in table 9-6, assemble starter
motor (page 9-59) and replace.
c. Put armature (2) in lathe and Dosition
cutting tool (3) and dial indicator (4)
against commutator (1),

Always wear eye protection when operating a lathe.
Failure to wear eye protection could result in
serious injury.
8. CUT 0.007-INCH (0.178 MM) OFF
COMMUTATOR (1) AND UNDERCUT MICA
(5) TO l/32-INCH (0.794 MM) DEEP AND
l/32-INCH (0.794 MM) WIDE.
a. Turn lathe on. Watch indicator (4). Cut
0.005-inch (0.127 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 (0.051 mm). Watch indicator (4)
to make sure that total indicator runout
is within the wear limits of table 9-6.
c. Turn off lathe. Pull tool (3) and dial
indicator (4) away from commutator (1).
d. Start grooves in mica (5) with file.
Undercut mica (5) with piece of blade to
l/32-inch (0.794 mm) deep and l/32-inch
(0.794 mm) wide. Mica (5) must be cut
away clean between segments (6) of
commutator (1).
