DISASSEMBLY OF THE STARTER/GENERATOR TO SERVICE THE BRUSHES
1. Remove the two bolts (20) and pull commutator end cover (23) free of starter/generator housing (24) (Figure
12-2, Page 12-2) . See following NOTE.
NOTE: If the brushes are not removed, contact between the brushes and commutator as the commutator end cover is
being removed or installed could damage the brushes. Lift the brush springs out of the notches in the brushes

the brushes and help prevent them from sliding towards the center of the cover
