NOTICE! It is recommended that the SSL instruction sheet, 10500262, be obtained from our website, www.delcoremy.com,
before reinstalling the plunger nut and adjusting pinion clearance. These instructions are more detailed.
6. Reinstall access plug and gasket in front of the lever housing and torque plug to a minimum of 8.1 Nm (72 lb in)
7. Reinstall solenoid-to-motor field connector strap or lead (for 32V/64V models).
8. Reinstall field terminal and solenoid motor terminal nuts finger tight.
9. Torque field terminal and solenoid motor terminal nuts to 27.12 Nm (240 lb in) (1.8-4.3 Nm for 32V/64V on solenoid side).
10. For
insulated models, remove the nut and washer assembly from solenoid ground terminal and install the flex ground lead.
11. Install ground terminal nut and washer assembly on solenoid and tighten to 1.8-4.3 Nm (16-38 lb in).
12. Reinstall starter and connect cables and other leads, as removed.
13. Reconnect the negative (-) cable at the battery.
Following these steps carefully is important for adjusting pinion clearance.
Proper care must be exercised when completing these steps to avoid personal injury and/or property damage. Also,
to avoid overheating and possible damage to the solenoid, power should not be applied in excess of one (1) minute.
DANGER!!! Ensure the stamped metal connector strap is disconnected from the field terminal to prevent the
possibility of motor from rotating.
Energize solenoid to prevent plunger from rotating and damaging the rubber boot while turning plunger nut to adjust pinion
clearance.
Apply appropri ate power (12V or 24V) to solenoid between the switch "S" (+) and “G” ground (-) terminals.
Seat the plunger by simultaneously pushing on 1/2" plunger nut. Note: 24 volts can be obtained by connecting two 12V
batteries in series.
Adjust plunger nut to obtain the pinion clearance 0.328”-0.390” from pinion face to housing face. (See graphics below)
Remove power immediately after adjustment is completed.
