I've used a small 3 arm puller before. Some can also be tapped off carefully with a screwdriver and hammer. |

And the bushes.
Not too much to rebuilding them. You'll need a very wide, thick slotted screw driver bit to get the field cores out without munging up the the slot in the screw. I made one out of an old chisel and use it in an impact gun. You'll probably want to re-wrap the field windings an replace the leads. The paper wrap does not hold up well. I re-wrap them with black cloth tape that I use with the wiring harnesses. I use new cloth covered wires for the leads. Of course replace the brushes.
The armatures I usually just clean up, and chuck them in my drill press and spin them and run some fine ScotchBrite against the commutators. Also, I use dental pick to clean the gaps between the commutators. Metallic junk in there can cause shorts or current bleeds between the windings.
If you take it all the way down, you can bead blast the housing, and have it re-plated. Paint the end caps and make it look "cracking".... :wink:
I noticed the field coils need 3 things to come out:
the 2 large screws- check,
regulator wires going through generator body need ends desoldered to pull through hole- check
the grounding wire for the 2 coils goes to a stud and fiber washer setup wish is peened like a star on the outside.-how to remove???
Id like to get my generator housing re nickel plated so its spiffy.
but I dont want to wreck this peened post gidget or the field coils. |
