High-temperature grease |
Install the 3 planetary gears.
INSTALL STARTER ARMATURE ASSEMBLY
Apply grease to the armature shaft.
|
High-temperature grease |
Apply high-temperature grease to the plate washer and bearing, as shown in the illustration.

High-temperature grease |
Install the starter armature to the starter commutator end frame.
Using snap ring pliers, install the plate washer and a new snap ring.
| *a | Snap Ring Pliers |
Note
Be sure to install the snap ring in the armature shaft groove securely.
Be sure to properly install the snap ring because it expands easily.
Using a vernier caliper, measure the length of the snap ring.
| *a | Length |
| Maximum length |
|---|
| 5.0 mm (0.196 in.) |
If the length is greater than the maximum, replace it with a new snap ring.
INSTALL STARTER COMMUTATOR END FRAME COVER
Install the end frame cover to the commutator end frame.
INSTALL STARTER ARMATURE PLATE
Insert the starter armature plate to the starter yoke.
| *a | Keyway |
| *b | Key |
Align the keyway of the starter armature plate with the key inside the starter yoke, and install the starter armature plate.
INSTALL STARTER COMMUTATOR END FRAME ASSEMBLY
Align the rubber of the end frame with the cutout of the starter yoke.
| *a | Cutout |
| *b | Rubber |
Install the end frame to the starter yoke.
Note
The magnet of the starter yoke may attract the starter armature when the starter commutator end frame is installed, causing the magnet to break.
INSTALL STARTER YOKE ASSEMBLY
Align the protrusion of the starter yoke with the cutout of the starter drive housing.
| *a | Cutout |
| *b | Protrusion |
Install the starter yoke with the 2 through-bolts.
INSTALL REPAIR SERVICE STARTER KIT
Apply grease to the plunger and the hook.
