Examine the rings closely, as pits will cause an arching which will quickly destroy the
brushes and rings. Repeat the sanding process if necessary to insure a good surface for
the brushes. If surface is clean and smooth you can then install the brushes back against
the rings and replace the inspection cover. The equipment is ready for operation. Let the
motor run about five minutes before turning on power to the head. This will build up a thin
layer of carbon on the rings and reduce the possibility of arcing while the brushes are
wearing in.
6. If rings are worn excessively or have pits tht sanding will not remove, they should be re
placed. The replacement of slip rings is considered more involved than normal field
maintenance. To be done correctly, you should have machine shop facilities. Head
assemblies may be returned to Gold Medal to have this maintenance performed. We
furnish a rebuilt head assembly if you do not have the time to send in the one from your
machine. For open account customers, we will ship the rebuilt head on a Memo basis for
full list price. When your head asembly is rebuilt, we will credit off the unit sent, and bill you
and we keep yours. For customers who do not have credit established, send us the full
price of the head assembly we will send you a rebuilt unit at once. When repairs are made
on your head assembly, we will charge them to your account and send you a check for
your refund promptly.
