Alternator & Regulator: Overhaul: Disassembly: Notes
- Scribe alignment mark on both end frames for reassembly reference. Remove 4 through bolts and separate drive end frame and rotor from rectifier end frame and stator. See Fig 1. Remove and clean brushes to prevent grease from soaking into brushes.
- Remove brush springs and place pressure sensitive tape (not friction tape) over rectifier end bearing and bearing shaft on rotor. Remove 3 nuts holding stator leads to rectifier bridge and remove stator.
- Remove 1 screw with plastic insulator, holding diode trio to brush holder. Remove diode trio. Remove screws securing regulator and brush holder. Remove indicator lamp resistor, brush holder, and regulator.
- Remove rectifier bridge by removing screw with washer, screw at capacitor lead, and nut/washer from "BAT" terminal stud. Remove insulator and "BAT" terminal stud. Remove screw securing capacitor to end of frame.
- To remove rotor from drive end frame, install rotor in vise, but only tight enough to remove shaft nut, washer, pulley, fan, and collar. Separate end frame from rotor.
