• Precautions
in
care and
handling
of
starter
motor
(1)
The
starting
motor
must
be installed
properly
for
the
starter
pinion
to
mesh
with
the
engine ring gear
as
it
should.
If
the ring gear and
pinion
do
not
mesh
properly,
the
pinion
and starter housing may be damaged and in
extreme
cases, the starter
may
not
even
turn.
(2)
If
the
starter
switch
is
turned
on and the engine
turns,
but
will
not
start, the cause
is
probably
in
the
fuel system.
Check the fuel I ines and
correct
as
necessary
(3)
In
attempting
to
start an engine, never
use
the startinq
motor
for
more
than 30 seconds at a
time
without
a pause
to
let
is
cool
down.
The
starting
motor
heats
up
very
rapidly
when
used and
if
it
is
used
continously
for
more
than
30 deconds the solder
may
melt
from
the
armature
or
the
coil
or
lead wires
may
melt.
Also,
the
battery
will
be <iischarged
tn
such a <iegree and
won't
have
suffirient
power
fm
another
attempt
at starting. A good
rtlle
10
follow
is
to
crank.
for
10
seconds and pause
for
10
se-
conds. Repeat
until
the engine starts
(4)
If
the
starting
motor
is
too
far
forward,
the
pinion
will
not
mesh
properly
with
the
ring gear and cause rapid
piston
wear. Ad jus t
for
proper
mesh.
(5)
Do
not
turn
the
starter
switch
while
the enqine
is
running.
If
this
is
done,
the
pinion
gear
will
contact
the
Tlng
qear,
which
is
tlHning
with
the
full
force
of
the enqlOe
which
may
cause a
broken
pinion,
bent
shaf.t,
broken
houslOg,
etc.
