(e)
Armature coil continuity
Measure between the commutator segment
and the armature coil. There should be no
continuity. If continuity is indicated, replace
the armature.
(f)
Armature coil open circuit
Measure between the segments in various
combinations. There should be continuity. If
no continuity, replace the armature.
(3)
Inspecting the field coils
(M008T70471A, M008T81071A)
(a)
There should be no continuity between the coil
end (brush) and the yoke.
(b)
There should be continuity between the coils
(brushes).
(c)
The pole-shoes and the coils should not be
loose. If faulty, replace the yoke.
(4)
Inspecting the bearings
Ensure that the bearings rotate smoothly without
abnormal noise. If faulty, replace.
(5)
Inspecting the rear bracket
If the metal is worn, replace the rear bracket.
