HEAVY DUTY ALTERNATORSFigure 22 - Removing Slip Ring Assembly.3.Clean the rotor shaft and apply a small amountof Loctite "Sleeve N’ Bearing Mount" to the shafton the section normally occupied by the slip ringassembly.4.Position the new slip ring assembly on the shaftso that the two leads are aligned with the tworotor coil eyelets on the rotor, and carefully pressthe slip ring assembly onto the shaft.There is no stop on the shaft to prevent the sliprings from being pressed on too far. It istherefore necessary to press the slip rings onlyto a point where there is 9.5 mm (3/8") spacebetween the inner edge of the slip rings and therotor (See Figure 23).Figure 23 - Slip Ring Locating Dimension.REASSEMBLY1.If slip ring end bearing has been removed, pressa new bearing in place from the outside of thehousing. Bearing should be installed with sealfacing in toward slip rings. When properlyinstalled, the manufacturer’s part numberstamped on the end of the bearing will be facingtoward the outside of the housing. Bearingshould seat against lip on inside end of bearingbore. After bearing is installed, apply a smallamount of grease (Chevron SRI 2 or equivalent)to rollers.2.Reinstall heat sinks in slip ring end housing. Besure that upper and lower insulating washers arein their proper location. Install but do not tightenlower heat sink retaining screws, lockwashers,guardwashers and insulating washers (SeeFigure 10). Replacement heat sinks may differin thickness or appearance from the originalassemblies, but will fit and functioninterchangeably.3.Install terminal bolts and regulator lead wires.Red wire goes on positive heat sink and blackwire goes on negative. Be sure that matingsurfaces of heat sinks, terminals and terminalbolts are clean and free of paint to insure a goodelectrical connection (See Figure 8).4Install two insulating bushings on each terminalbolt and install regulator housing. Be sure thatred and black regulator leads are properly routedthrough cutaway section of end housing, andinstall and tighten nuts on terminal bolts (SeeFigure 4).5.Tighten lower heat sink screws and check allleads for proper routing, being sure that no leadis pinched under heat sink.6.Reinstall capacitor.7.Reinstall stator and terminal nuts. It is advisableto align stator and housing by temporarilyinstalling the through bolts.8.Press drive end bearing into housing andreinstall bearing retainer and four screws. Wheninstalling bearing, press on outer race to avoidtransmitting force through the bearing ballswhich could brinnell the bearing.9.Press drive end housing and bearing on to rotorshaft. Using a sleeve around the shaft, press onthe inner race to avoid brinnelling the bearing.10.Install rotor and housing assembly into statorand slip ring end housing assembly, being surethat mounting ears are aligned.11.Install three through bolts and self locking nuts.Torque to 5.6-6.8 Nom (50-60 in. lbs.). Place asmall amount of grease (Chevron SRI 2 orequivalent) in housing and reinstall the metaldust cap by carefully pressing it into place.CTS-4043A - Chapter II - Page 10
