DISASSEMBLY SERVICE POINTS

.

<<A>> FRONT BRACKET ASSEMBLY REMOVAL

CAUTION

Do not insert a screwdriver too deep. The stator coil will be 
damaged.
Insert a flat-tipped screwdriver between the front bracket 
assembly and the stator core, and pry it downward to separate 
the stator and front bracket assembly.

.

<<B>> GENERATOR PULLEY REMOVAL

CAUTION

Make sure not to damage the rotor.
Set the pulley upward, clamp the rotor in a vise, and remove 
the pulley.

.

<<C>> STATOR REMOVAL

CAUTION

• Check that the heat from the soldering iron is not trans-

mitted to the diode for a long time.

• Use care that no undue force is exerted to leads of 

diodes.

1. Use a soldering iron (180 to 250 W) to unsolder the stator. 

This work should complete within approximately four 
seconds to prevent heat from transferring to the diode.

2. When removing the rectifier from the regulator assembly, 

unsolder the points soldered on the rectifier.
