STARTER
MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The startu can
be
roughly divided into the following sections:
• A motor section which generates a drive power.
• An overrunning clutch section which transmits an anna-
ture torque, preventing motor overrun after starting.
• A switch section (solenoid) which is operated when actuating the overrunning clutch through a lever and which
supplies load current to the motor.
The starter is a new type, small, light-weight and is called a
high-speed internal-reduction starter. The pinion shaft
is
separate from the motor shaft; the pinion slides only on the pinion shaft. A reduction gear
is
installed between the motor
shaft and a pinion shaft. The pinion sliding part is not
exposed outside the starter so that the pinion may slide
smoothly without becoming fouled with dust and grease. The
motor shaft is supported
at
both ends on ball bearings. The
lever
mechanism,
switch
and
overrunning
clutch
inner
circuit
are
identical
to
conventional
ones.
ADJUSTMENT
AND
REPAIR
If
any abnormality is found by the following tests, the starter
should be disassembled and repaired.
Pinion
Gap
Inspection
I. Connect a battery (12V) between the starter terminal S
and the starter body, and the pinion drive should rotate out
and stop.
A
CAUTION:
Never
apply
battery
voltage
for
over
10
seconds
continuously.
2.
Lightly push the pinion back and measure the return
stroke (called pinion gap).
3.
If
the
piniOli
gap is not within the standard range,
(0;5
to
2.0 mm), adjust it by increasing or decreasing the number
of
shims on the solenoid. The gap
is
decreased as the
number
of
shims
increases.

When the switch
is
closed, the pinion must protrude and
the starter must run smoothly (at
3000 rpm or more).
If
the current or starter speed
is
out
of
specification, disas-
semble the starter and repair
it.

SOLENOID
Perform the following tests.
If
any test result
is
not
satisfactory, replace the solenoid assembly.
1. Inspect the solenoid for continuity between terminals
(+) and (-) and between terminals S and the body and
M and the body. There should
be

between terminals
S and M. Continuity will be found
between terminals
S and the body and terminal M and
the body.

NOTE:
Disconnect the wire from terminal
M.
2. Connect a battery
to
the solenoid's terminal S for (+)
and M for (-). Have a switch in the + lead and close it.
The pinion drive should extend fully out.

LAY-UP & RECOMMISSIONING
GENERAL
Many owners rely on their boatyards to prepare their craft,
including engines and generators, for lay-up during the
off-season or for long periods
to accomplish lay-up preparation themselves.
The procedures which follow will allow you to perform your
own
lay-up

These procedures should afford your engine protection
during a lay-up and also help familiarize you with the
maintenance
If you have any questions regarding lay-up procedures, call
