Using Depression Gauge—Step 2

positioning the movable leg (Figure 2-14).
Move the collar up against the frame and
tighten the collar thumb screw fixing the
collar securely upon the movable leg.

Positioning Armature Disc

Step 3

With the wheel assembly lying down so that
the armature is horizontal, place the inner
bearing in the hub and rotate under light
pressure to make certain bearing is fully
seated. Have someone hold the armature
disc (Figure 2-15) up against the stops or
place three wedges equally spaced under
the disc to hold it against the stops. Using
wedges is the more accurate method.

Using Depression Gauge—Step 3

Step 4

Reverse the gauge so collar on center leg is
below gauge crossbar, and place the outside
legs against the armature face (Figure 2-16).
Make certain gauge legs are on armature
face and not between segments or in
welding projection holes. Loosen the thumb
screw on the gauge frame only, and push the
movable leg against the bearing. Tighten the
gauge frame thumb screw fixing the movable
leg in this new position. Check this position
of the three legs in three points, 120˚ apart,
to insure correct reading.

Measuring Armature Depression

Step 5

The distance between the gauge frame and
the collar on the movable leg is the armature
depression (Figure 2-17). It should be
between 1/8” and 3/16”.
