b) Adjust 1/2" plunger nut [8] to obtain correct distance between the pinion face [13] and the inside of
the machined surface of the nose housing [14]. This distance must conform to the product
specifications in order for the starter to function properly. While measuring, apply slight
pressure against the pinion [13] to take the slack out.
i. On 37MT models, the required distance is between 0.01" and 0.07".
ii. On 41MT models, the required distance is between 0.15" and 0.21".
iii. On 42MT models, the required distance is between 0.328" and 0.390".
c) Disconnect power immediately after pinion is properly adjusted.
7. Install access plug and gasket [4] to front of lever housing and tighten to a minimum of 8.1 Nm (72 lb in).
8. Install solenoid-to-motor field connector strap [3], using correct strap (See strap illustrations, page 4).
a) Install E8 Torx Head field terminal screw [2] on starter frame finger tight.
b) Install E8 Torx Head screw on solenoid motor terminal [1*] finger tight.
c) Tighten E8 Torx Head screw [2] at starter frame to 8.5-10.7 Nm (75-95 lb in).
d) Tighten E8 Torx Head screw [1*] at solenoid motor terminal to 8.5-10.7 Nm (75-95 lb in).
9. For insulated models, remove top 3/8” nut and washer assembly from solenoid ground terminal [5] and
install flexible ground cable (not shown on illustrations).
10. Install 3/8" ground terminal nut and washer assembly [5] and tighten to 1.8-4.3 Nm (16-38 lb in).
