from network exceeding 36 V. Carry out wire insulation check using megohm
meter or lamp powered from network exceeding 36 V when alternator and reg
ulator semiconductor devices are disconnected only.
5. Do not allow the direct water splashing on the alternator and regulator
during vehicle washing.
6. When servicing the alternator brush assembly it is necessary to:
— wipe brush holder and the brushes with clean cloth soaked in gasoline;
— check brushes consistency, absence of their jamming in the brush hold
ers and reliability of their contact with collector;
— brushes worn up to 8 mm are subject to replacement.
8.8 STARTER
The starter is a DC serieswound electric motor with the drive consisting
of a drive gear and a backlash roller clutch. The starter is engaged with the use
of the engine control switch key.
Maintenance service of the starter reduces to periodical checking of start
er and wires fastening and cleanout of dirt.
Starter operation instructions:
1. It is forbidden to set the vehicle in motion by the starter. It may result
in failure of the starter. In case of emergency it is allowed to move the vehicle
for not more than 5 m.
2. In winter do not persist in starting the cold engine by cranking it with
the starter for a long time without preliminary heating of the engine. This may
lead to failure of the starter and storage battery.
8.9. ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
The vehicles are equipped with antilock brake system (ABS) made by
"KNORRBREMSE". ABS is effective in case of emergency braking on the
roads with diverse road surface (example: asphaltice) and it prevents locking
of the wheels being in the least favorable road adherence condition (on the
ice) ensuring minimum braking distance of the vehicle for this road surface
(ice) while maintaining its stability and response.
Attention!
To get the best effect during emergency braking of the vehicle using ABS
it is necessary to press the brake pedal with maximum effort pushing the clutch
pedal simultaneously.
The electrical part of the ABS consists of 4 speed sensors (located in the
vehicle's wheel assemblies), 3 input choppers (on vehicle frame), control unit
