4. INSPECT UNDERCUT DEPTHCheck that the undercut depth is clean and free of foreign
material. Smooth out the edge.
Standard undercut depth: 0.7±0.9 mm
(0.028±0.035 in.)
Minimum undercut depth: 0.2 mm (0.008 in.)
If the undercut depth is less than minimum, correct it with a
hacksaw blade.
Field Coil (Field Frame)
1. INSPECT FIELD COIL FOR OPEN CIRCUIT Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity between
the lead wire and field coil brush lead.
If there is no continuity, replace the field frame.
2. INSPECT FIELD COIL FOR GROUND Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity be-
tween the field coil end and field frame.
If there is continuity, replace the field frame.
Brushes
INSPECT BRUSH LENGTHUsing a vernier caliper, measure the brush length.
Standard length: 15.0±15.5 mm
(0.591±0.610 in.)
Minimum length: 9.5 mm (0.374 in.)
If the length is less than minimum, replace the brush holder
and field frame.

Brush Springs
INSPECT BRUSH SPRING LOADTake the pull scale reading the instant the brush spring sepa-
rates from the brush.
Standard installed load:
26±32 N (2.7±3.3 kgf, 6.0±7.3 lbf)
If the installed load is not as specified, replace the brush
springs.
Brush Holder
INSPECT BRUSH HOLDER INSULATIONUsing an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity be-
tween the positive (+) and negative (±) brush holders.
If there is continuity, repair or replace the brush holder.
Clutch and Gears
1. INSPECT GEAR TEETHCheck the gear teeth on the pinion gear, idler gear and the
clutch assembly for wear or damage.
If damaged, replace the gear or clutch assembly.
If damaged, also check the flywheel ring gear for wear or
damage.
2. INSPECT CLUTCH PINION GEAR Rotate the pinion gear counterclockwise and check that it
turns freely. Try to rotate the pinion gear clockwise and check
that it locks.
If necessary, replace the clutch assembly.
Bearings
1. INSPECT FRONT BEARING Turn each bearing by hand while applying inward force.
If resistance is felt or the bearing sticks, replace the bearing.

(b) Using a 10 mm nut and press, press in a new frontbearing.
NOTICE: Be careful of the bearing installation direction.
(c) Using a punch, stake the armature shaft.
3. INSPECT REAR BEARING Turn each bearing by hand while applying inward force.
If resistance is felt or the bearing sticks, replace the bearing.
4. IF NECESSARY, REPLACE REAR BEARING (a) Using SST and a press, press out the bearing.

ASSEMBLY OF STARTER
(See Components on page ST±15)
HINT: Use high±temperature grease to lubricate the bearings
and gears when assembling the starter.
1. PLACE ARMATURE INTO FIELD FRAME Apply grease to the armature bearings, and insert the arma-
ture into the field frame.
2. INSTALL BRUSH HOLDER (a) Align the claw of the brush holder with the claw grooveof the field frame.
(b) Place the brush holder on the field frame.
(c) Using a screwdriver, hold the brush spring back, and connect the brush into the brush holder. Connect the
four brushes.
NOTICE: Check that the positive (+) lead wires are not
grounded.
3. INSERT STEEL BALL INTO CLUTCH SHAFT HOLE (a) Apply grease to the steel ball.
(b) Insert the steel ball into the clutch shaft hole.
4. INSTALL CLUTCH ASSEMBLY, GEARS AND STARTER HOUSING
(a) Apply grease to the return spring.
(b) Insert the return spring into the magnetic switch hole.

PERFORMANCE TEST OF STARTER
NOTICE: These tests must be performed within 3 to 5 se-
conds to avoid burning out the coil.
1. PERFORM PULL±IN TEST (a) Disconnect the field coil lead wire from terminal C.
(b) C onnect battery to the magnetic switch as shown.
Check that the pinion gear moves outward.
If the pinion gear does not move, replace the magnetic
switch.
2. PERFORM HOLD±IN TEST While connected as above with the pinion gear out, discon-
nect the negative (±) lead from terminal C.
Check that the pinion gear remains out.
If the pinion gear returns inward, replace the magnetic switch.
3. INSPECT PLUNGER RETURN Disconnect the negative (+) lead from the switch body. Check
that the pinion gear returns inward.
If the pinion gear does not return, replace the magnetic
switch.
4. PERFORM NO±LOAD PERFORMANCE TEST (a) Connect battery and ammeter to the starter as shown.
(b) Check that the starter rotates smoothly and steadily with
the pinion gear moving out.
Check the reading on the ammeter.
Standard amperage: 120 A or less at 11.5 V
