retaining screws at the top of the unit.
2. Remove the four socket head capscrews "B"
from the output endbell (brake end).
3. Remove the output endbell assembly, and
then remove armatures "C" and "D" from the
splined hub on the output shaft.
4. Remove the three Phillips head screws and
the Autogap™ components from the back
side of armatures "C" and "D".
5. Place armature "D" onto the splined hub with
the friction face oriented toward the brake
magnet face.
6. Place spring "E" (included with the kit) over
the splined hub and against the back of
armature "D".
7. Place armature "C" onto the splined hub and
against spring "E" with the friction face
oriented away from spring "E".
