Commutator End Frame & Bearing
Replace armature assembly if commutator outer diameter is less than 1.378" (36 mm) or if undercut depth is less than .008" (.2 mm). DO NOT undercut insulation. Ensure commutator end bearing has not spun in frame. If bearing has spun, replace frame and bearing. DO NOT lubricate bearing. If bearing is dry or damaged, replace bearing. Measure original bearing depth and install new bearing to same depth.
