BEARING REMOVAL
1. Place the wedge attachment tool between the bearing and the armature. Make sure the wedge attachment tool
is supporting the inner race of the bearing. If a press is not available, secure a bearing puller to the wedge
attachment tool and pull the bearing off of the end of the armature shaft. Support the armature so that it will not
drop when the bearing is removed
(Figure 19-10, Page 19-7) .
2. Slide the bearing retainer ring (32) off of the output end of the shaft (Figure 19-8, Page 19-6) .

FIELD COIL ASSEMBLY
Replace entire field coil housing assembly if coils, pole shoes or terminals are damaged. (Figure 19-11, Page 19-8) .
VISUAL INSPECTION OF ARMATURE
Obvious defects can be seen by examining the armature. If an armature has frayed or charred insulation, broken wires
or thrown solder, it is obvious without testing that it should be replaced. Faults seen during the visual inspection can aid
in diagnosing the original cause of the failure. Items to look for are listed below.
• Burned, charred, or cracked insulation
• Improperly cured varnish
• Thrown solder
• Flared armature windings
• Worn, burned, or glazed commutator
• Loose or raised commutator bars
• Bruised or damaged armature core laminations
• Worn armature bearing or shaft
• Dirty or oily commutator
