Brush Holder Assembly:
a. Hold the starter assembly vertically on the
end housing, and carefully position the
assembled brush holder assembly, with the
supplied protective tube, against the end of
the commutator/armature. The mounting
screw holes in the metal clips must be “up/
out.” Slide the brush holder assembly down
into place around the commutator, and install
the positive (+) brush lead grommet in the
cutout of the frame. See Figure 8-67. The
protective tube may be saved and used for
future servicing.

the brush holder assembly, so the holes in the
metal mounting clips are “up/out.”

retainer caps. See Figure 8-69.
