SR 4 GENERATORDISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLYclearance over the entire length of the supports.This is especially important on generators withlong supports (10). Install shims as necessaryuntil all of the mounting surfaces are fiat andparallel.View A-A.e.Tighten all bolts that fasten the engine andgenerator supports to the base to one-half oftheir final torque. Loosen all bolts (7), and checkthe gap (D) between the generator and theflywheel housing at location (E), (F), (G) and (H).Location (E) must always be at the top. Make arecord of each measurement.f.If the gap at location (E) is larger than the gap atlocation (G) by more than .005 in. (0.13 mm),install an equal amount of shims under eachgenerator support as necessary. If the gap atlocation (G) is larger than the gap at location (E)by more than .005 in. (0.13 mm), remove anequal amount of shims from under eachgenerator support as necessary. After acorrection has been made to shim thickness,tighten the generator support as necessary.After a correction has been made to shimthickness, tighten the generator support bolts toone-half of their final torque and again check thegap at location (E) and (G). Use this procedureagain and again until the difference in gapmeasurements is .005 in. (0.13 mm) or less.g.If the gap at location (F) is larger than the gap atlocation (H) by more than .005 in. (0.13 mm),loosen the bolts in the generator supports andmove the rear of the generator to the right. If thegap at location (H) is larger than the gap atlocation (F) by more than .005 in. (0.13 mm).loosen the bolts in the generator supports andmove the rear of the generator to the left. Dothis procedure again and again until thedifference in gap measurements is .005 in. (0.13mm) or less. Tighten bolts (2) to their finaltorque.h.Install a dial indicator on base (12) with theindicator tip next to a support mounting bolt.Tighten this bolt to its final torque, and at thesame time check the indicator. If there is morethan .005 in. (0.13 mm) of indicator movement,the shim thickness is incorrect under that bolt.Install shims as necessary. Do this procedureagain and again until all engine and generatorsupport-mounting bolts have been tightened totheir final torque and support deflection is withinspecification.142
