- Check that the slip rings are not rough or scored.
If the slip rings are rough or scored, replace the generator rotor assembly.
- Using a vernier caliper, measure the slip ring diameter.
Standard Diameter
14.2 to 14.8 mm (0.559 to 0.583 in.)
Minimum Diameter
14.0 mm (0.551 in.)
If the diameter is less than the minimum, replace the generator rotor assembly.
