INTRODUCTION
Section I. GENERAL
I. SCOPE, a. These instructions are published for the information and
guidance of the personnel to whom this equipment is assigned. They contain
information on the operation and maintenance of the equipment as well as
descriptions of the major units and their functions in relation to the other
components of the equipment. They apply only to the Medical Department
Item No. 9606000, X-ray field unit generator, and are arranged in five parts:
Part One—Introduction; Part Two—Operating instructions; Part Three—
Maintenance instructions; Part Four-—Auxiliary equipment; Part Five—Repair
instructions.
b. Supply Catalogs, Field Manuals, Technical Manuals, and other publications
applicable to the material covered by this manual are listed in reference
section at end of manual.
2. RECORDS. AR 850—15 and current directives direct that WD, Form 48,
Drivers Trip Ticket and Preventive Maintenance Service Record and WD,

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Section IV. GENERAL
8. SCOPE. Part two contains information for the guidance of the personnel
responsible for the operation of this equipment. It contains information on
the operation of the equipment with the description and location of the controls
and instruments.
Section V. SERVICE UPON RECEIPT OF EQUIPMENT
9. NEW EQUIPMENT, a. Unpacking. (1) Remove the packing crate.
(2) Place the cased unit in the location selected.
(3) Remove the cable compartment top panel. (See fig. 1, (12).)
(4) Remove the front panel. (See fig. 1, (5).)
(5) No further unpacking is necessary to put the unit in operation.
b. Assembling. The unit is completely assembled within the carrying
case when shipped. No mechanical assembling of engine or generator is
necessary upon receipt of equipment.
c. Inspecting. (1) Visual. Make a thorough visual inspection for any
apparent damage or shortage.
(2) Running test. Follow procedure for running test contained in items
1 through 14. (See par. 33.) Run the unit for a minimum of 30 minutes.
d. Installing. (1) Location. As this plant is auxiliary to the X-ray field
unit it will frequently be operated in the open. Select a place as free from
sand, mud, or dust as possible. If it can be anticipated that the plant will remain
for some time in one location, it is advisable to build an inclosure about
it. To further protect it from dust or dampness, it should be elevated from
the ground on a platform of convenient height. At all times keep the plant
in an upright level position.
(2) Ventilation. Ventilation is very necessary to prevent serious damage
due to overheating. Any gasoline engine develops heat which must be removed
from the compartment or inclosure in which the engine is operating. Any
inclosure must have sufficient openings or removable panels, depending on
climatic conditions, to permit adequate cooling of this engine.
(3) Exhaust. If the plant is to be used indoors the exhaust gases must
be piped from the building. Use a flexible metal tube not less than 1 inch in
diameter between the exhaust muffler and a solid pipe or vent to the outside.
The flexible tube is necessary to take up the engine vibrations and permit a
leakless connection. A vent pipe with a length of not more than 6 feet will
require a diameter of 1 inch. To prevent any back pressure, an additional
l/2 inch must be added to the vent pipe diameter for each additional 6 feet of
length. Be certain the exhaust vent extends far enough from or above the
building to eliminate the possibility of the exhaust gases being carried back

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
into the building. Caution must also be taken to keep the exhaust tube and
vent shielded. During operation the exhaust vent will become extremely hot
and is a fire hazard.
(4) Grounding, (a) Drive grounding rod (fig. 5, (3)) into the earth
for its entire length and near enough to the unit to connect the grounding
cable. (See fig. 5, (4).)
(£) Moisten soil around the grounding rod when in a dry region.
(c) Connect the grounding cable to the grounding rod and on the outlet
ground terminal. (See fig. 5, (12).)
10. USED EQUIPMENT. ■ Procedure for the receipt of used equipment will be
the same as prescribed for new equipment. (See par. 9.) The visual inspection
will be very thorough and a running test (par. 33) of 1 hour will be conducted.
Section VI. CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS
I I. CONTROLS, a. Starter. The engine is of the manual crank type using
a starter rope (fig. 3, (15)) and a starter rope pulley. (See fig. 5, (6).)
b. Fuel tank shut-off petcock. The petcock (fig. 5, (9)) is a means of
stopping the flow of gasoline from the fuel tank.
c. Filler cap shut-off screw. The shut-off screw is a part of the fuel tank
filler cap. (See fig. 5, (10).) When closed it seals the fuel tank. When
open it serves as a vacuum break when the fuel is being drained from the
tank.
d. Manual choke control. This control (fig. 5, (13)) is linked to the
choke plate and controls the volume of air entering the carburetor. The operation
of the choke control is the same as on all gasoline engines. Pull out for
starting, push in when running.
e. Stop button. The stop button (fig. 5, 19)), or an identical stop
button in the same position on the opposite side of the unit, is a means of

Section X. DEMOLITION TO PREVENT ENEMY USE
23. DEMOLITION. Use any means available to render the unit unfit for
enemy use, repair, or salvage. If fire will not disclose your position, puncture
fuel tank, allow time for gasoline to spill over generator, and ignite. Use
sledge or heavy rocks to smash and break off parts, such as, carburetor and
fuel pumps. Should silence and security be necessary in the withdrawal, remove
such parts as the carburetor, spark plugs or fuel pump and bury or
otherwise hide them. If two or more units are with the same organization,
be certain the same parts are removed from each. Because of the small size of
the unit, it may be possible to bury the remaining bulk in an abandoned foxhole
or slit trench.

Section XIII. LUBRICATION
26. LUBRICATION, a. War Department Lubrication Order 5001 (fig. 6)
illustrates the parts which require lubrication and specifies the lubricants and
the intervals of lubrication under all climatic conditions.
b. Records. WD Form 48, Drivers Trip Ticket and Preventive Maintenance
Service Record, will be used to keep proper lubrication intervals. WD,
AGO Form 468, Unsatisfactory Equipment Report, can be used to forward
notations of lubrication failures to proper authorities.
Section XIV. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SERVICES
27. GENERAL, a. To insure mechanical efficiency it is necessary that the
equipment be systematically inspected at designated intervals in order that
defects may be discovered and corrected before they result in serious damage.
The scheduled preventive maintenance services prescribed in this section are
designed to insure maximum efficiency in the operation of the unit.
b. The general inspection or servicing of each item applies also to any
supporting member or connection, and generally includes a check to see
whether the item is in good condition, correctly assembled, secure, and not
excessively worn.
c. The inspection for good condition is usually an external visual inspection
to determine whether the unit is damaged beyond safe or serviceable
limits. The term good condition is explained further by the following descriptions:
not bent or twisted, not chafed or burned, not broken or cracked, not
bare or frayed, not dented or collapsed, not torn or cut.
d. The inspection of a unit to see that it is "correctly assembled” is
usually an external visual inspection to see whether it is in its normal assembled
position in the unit.
e. The inspection of a unit to determine if it is "secure” is usually an
external visual examination, a hand feel, or a pry-bar check for looseness. Such
an inspection should include any brackets, lock washers, lock nuts, locking
wires or cotter pins used in the assembly.
f. 'Excessively worn” is generally understood to mean worn close-to
or beyond serviceable limits, and likely to result in a failure if not replaced
before the next scheduled inspection.
28. OPERATORS SERVICE (first echelon), a. Operators preventive maintenance
services are listed on the back of the "Drivers Trip Ticket and Preventive
Maintenance Service Record,” WD Form 48 and are prepared to cover gasoline
engine powered equipment of all types and models. Items peculiar to
this equipment but not listed on WD Form 48 are covered under items with
which they are related. Those items that are listed on the form that do not
pertain to this equipment are omitted from the procedures as written in this
section.
b. The items listed on WD Form 48 that apply to this equipment are
expanded in this section to provide specific procedures or references to proper
paragraph for accomplishment of the inspections and services. These procedures
are arranged to facilitate their execution and to conserve the time
of the operator, and are not necessarily in the numerical order as given on
WD Form 48. The item numbers, however, are identical with those shown
on that form.
15
TM 8-630
28-30
X-RAY FIELD UNIT GENERATOR
c. Any defects or unsatisfactory operating characteristics beyond the scope
of first echelon to correct must be reported at the earliest opportunity to the
designated individual in authority.
29. BEFORE OPERATION SERVICES, a. This inspection schedule is designed
primarily as a check to see that the equipment has not been tampered
with or sabotaged, that engine oil and fuel have not leaked out, and that
nothing has happened to change conditions of operation since the last after
operation service was performed.
b. The before operation service consists of inspecting the items in the
following schedule according to the procedures prescribed, and correcting
or reporting any deficiencies. Upon completion of the service, results should
be reported promptly to the designated individual in authority.
(1) Item 1. Tampering or damage. Look for any damage to equipment
and for any signs of tampering or sabotage. To facilitate starting the engine,
dry the spark plugs and wiring if they appear wet. See that equipment is
placed in a level position and on a firm foundation.
(2) Item 3. Fuel and oil. See that fuel tank is full, adding fuel, gasoline
(unleaded and undyed) 62 octane number (U.S.A. 2-116 Amend 2),
if required. The oil level in crankcase should be at the "High” mark on the
oil filler gauge. (See fig. 5, (16).) Check level and add specified oil (par.
26) if required. Inspect for any foreign material in either fuel or oil that
might cause damage to the engine and correct if found before starting engine.
Any appreciable loss in either fuel or oil since the after operation. services
must be investigated and the cause corrected or reported.
(3) Item 6. Leaks, general. Look for fuel or oil leaks. Trace source
and correct or report.
(4) Item 4. Accessories. Inspect carburetor, air cleaner, fuel tank, muffler
and governor to see that they are secure and correctly assembled. Make
sure the soil around the grounding rod is moist. Inspect booster coil conduit
and spark plug cables making certain connections are tight and cables and
conduit are clean, and free from water or moisture.
(5) Item 7. Engine warm-up. (a) Open full tank shut-off petcock
(fig. 5, (9)) and close choke. The operation of the choke should be in accordance
with instructions in Item 8 which follows.
(h) Wind the starting rope around the starter rope pulley (fig. 5,
(6) ) and give a strong, steady pull the full length of the rope. Then proceed
according to instructions given in Item 8.
(6) Item 8. Choke. When starting a cold engine keep the manual
choke control (fig. 5, (13)) pulled out for first 3 or 4 turns. If engine
fails to start push choke control completely in and continue cranking for
several turns. Then repeat entire procedure until engine starts. This will
prevent overchoking. When engine starts adjust choke control so that engine
runs without surging or missing. Gradually push choke control inward as
engine warms up until it will operate smoothly with choke control pushed
completely in. Never operate with the choke control partly out.
(7) Item 25. During the operation check. As soon as the engine starts,
observation of the during operation service should begin.
30. DURING OPERATION SERVICES, a. While the equipment is operating
listen for any sounds such as rattles, knocks, squeals, or hums that would
16
TM 8-630
30-32
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
indicate trouble. Look for smoke, and be on the alert to detect any unusual
odor that might indicate unsatisfactory operation, overheating, or fuel and
oil leaks. Use information on trouble shooting (sec. XV) to aid in locating
cause of unsatisfactory operation.
b. During operation, services consist of observing Item 31, below, according
to the procedures prescribed, and immediately investigating any indications
of serious trouble. Notice minor deficiencies to be corrected or
reported at the earliest opportunity, usually the next scheduled halt.
Item 31. Engine and controls. Be on the alert at all times while the
equipment is operating to detect any unusual operating characteristics such as
fluctuating, excessive, or low speed. Note any looseness or binding in governor
and booster linkage. Observe for any looseness that may develop in
any part of the equipment or its skid and mounting. Use information on
trouble shooting. (See par. 35.)
31. AT STOP SERVICES, a. Caution-. Be sure to disconnect the X-ray load
before stopping the engine. Stop the plant by pressing one of the stop buttons
(fig. 5, (19)) located on the blower housing of the engine. It should
be held in until the engine stops.
b. At stop services may be regarded as minimum maintenance and
should be performed under all conditions even though more extensive scheduled
maintenance services can not be accomplished at the prescribed interval.
c. At stop services are to be performed between periods of operation or
at least every 2 hours of operation. They consist of investigating any deficiencies
noted during operation, and inspecting the following items according
to the prescribed procedures. In either case, any deficiencies should be corrected
or reported.
(1) Item 38. Fuel and oil. Check for adequate supply of fuel, (par.
29b) to run until next scheduled stop and replenish if needed. Add engine
oil of correct grade (par. 26) if necessary to bring level to "High” mark on
oil filler gauge.
(2) Item 46. Leaks, general. Look for any fuel or oil leaks on equipment
mount and at all connections.
(3) Item 47. Accessories. Examine air cleaner, breather tube, carburetor,
ignition breaker box, fuel tank, fuel pump, and exhaust muffler for looseness.
Be sure ground around grounding rod is moist.
32. AFTER OPERATION SERVICES, a. Caution-. Be sure to disconnect the
X-ray load before stopping the engine. Stop the engine by pressing one of
the stop buttons located on the blower housing of the engine. It should be
held in until the engine stops.
b. After operation servicing is particularly important because at this
time the operator inspects and services the equipment to detect and correct
any deficiencies first echelon personnel is authorized to correct and to prepare
it so it is ready for use at any time that it is needed. The before operation
service, with a few exceptions, is then necessary only to be certain that the
equipment is in the same condition in which it was left upon completion of
the after operation service. The after operation service should never be
entirely omitted, but may be reduced under extreme conditions to the bare
fundamental services prescribed for the at stop service.
c. When performing the after operation service the operator must re17

32
X-RAY FIELD UNIT GENERATOR
member and consider any irregularities noticed during the operation of the
equipment and found at the stop service.
d. The after operation services are to be performed after each day or
8 hours of operation. They consist of inspecting and servicing the following
items according to the prescribed procedures. Those items marked with
an asterisk (*) require additional services weekly or every 48 operating
hours, whichever occurs first, the procedures for which are given in (£) of
each applicable item.
(1) Item 54. Fuel and oil. Wipe gasoline tank filler cap clean and remove
and see that air vent hole is open. (See par. 44b.) Fill tank with fuel

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
33. SECOND ECHELON PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE, a. The numbers
of the preventive maintenance procedures given in the chart which follows,
are identical with those outlined in WD, AGO Form 461. Certain items on
the work sheet that do not apply to this equipment are not included in the
procedures in this manual. In general, the numerical sequence of the
items on the work sheet is followed in the chart, but in some instances there
is deviation for conservation of time and effort.
b. Special services are directed by repeating the item numbers in the
columns which indicate the interval at which the services are to be performed,
and show the parts or assemblies which are to receive certain mandatory services.
For example, an item number in one or both columns opposite a procedure
marked "tighten” means that the actual tightening of the object must
be performed. The special services are described as follows:
(1) Adjust. Make all necessary adjustments in accordance with the instructions’
available in paragraphs pertinent to the part or assembly.
(2) Clean. Clean components and parts of the equipment indicated with
dry cleaning solvent, unless otherwise directed to remove excess lubricant,
dirt, and other foreign material. If parts have been removed from equipment,
they should be rinsed in clean solvent and dried thoroughly before
installing. Be sure to keep parts clean until reassembled and installed. Clean
the protective grease coating from new parts since this material is not a
good lubricant.
(3) Special lubrication. This applies either to lubrication operations
that do not appear on the WD Lubrication Order or to items that do appear
on the order but should be performed in connection with the maintenance
operations if components have to be disassembled for inspection or service.
(4) Service. This usually consists of performing certain operations such
as draining and refilling oil base with oil.
(5) Tighten. All tightening operations must be performed with sufficient
force on the wrench handle (torque) to tighten the unit sufficiently
to hold under jarring and vibration but still not damage threads or cause
distortion. Tightening will always be understood to include the correct installation
of lock washers, lock nuts and cotter pins provided and necessary
to secure the tightening.
c. The procedures for performing operations for each item in the 96
operating hours of monthly (whichever occurs first) and 384 operating hours
or 6 months (whichever occurs first) schedule are described in the chart
below. Each page of the chart has two columns at its left edge corresponding
to the monthly or 6 months maintenance intervals, respectively. It will be
found that a particular procedure may not be required at both intervals. In
order to determine those procedures that are to be performed, follow the
column corresponding to the maintenance interval that is due, and wherever
an item number appears in that column perform the operations indicated
opposite that number.
d. The frequencies of preventive maintenance services outlined herein
are considered a minimum requirement for normal operation of the equipment.
Under unusual operation conditions it may be necessary to perform the maintenance
services more frequently.

BEFORE OPERATION SERVICE. Perform before
operation service as outlined in paragraph 29 to determine
whether equipment is supplied with fuel and
oil, and to make it ready for running test.
ENGINE. Operate engine with and without load and
listen for knocks, rattles, hums and any other unusual
noises that would indicate trouble. Notice any tendency
to surge, stall, or miss. (Under load, readings
on the X-ray machine at 85 K.V.P. should have a
range from 5 Ma. to 25 Ma.) Look for excessive
smoking from the exhaust that would indicate too rich
carburetor adjustment or high oil consumption. Be on
the alert for any odors that might mean undesirable
operation. (Engine speed should be 1,800 RPM.) Use
information on trouble shooting. (See sec. XV.)
UNUSUAL NOISES. Be on the alert for any unusual
noises that would indicate trouble in the generator;
loose, damaged or unsatisfactory operating accessories,
or mounting bolts that need tightening. Use information
on trouble shooting. (See par. 36.)
LEAKS. Examine the equipment and mounting in
general, and all lines and connections, to detect any
signs of fuel or oil leaks. Look particularly for signs
of oil being thrown from the ventilating openings between
the engine crankcase and generator frame which
normally indicates leakage from the rear main bearing.
Leakage at this point should be reported to the designated
individual in authority.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
replace the spare parts available to the first and second echelons. No other
services will be attempted.
b. Ignition current is furnished by a flywheel type magneto. The magneto
proper is located inside the blower wheel and consists of the rotor or magnets,
integral with blow wheel, and the stator assembly mounted on the gear cover.
The stator assembly includes the right-hand coil (fig. 7, (3)), left hand coil
(fig. 7, (4)), laminated coil shoes (fig. 7, (2)), and the back plate (fig. 7,
(5)). The ignition breaker is mounted atop the crankcase. The breaker arm
(fig. 7, (39)) and arm point (fig. 7, (36)) are operated by a plunger (fig.
7, (40)) which rides on the camshaft. A condenser (fig. 7, (43)), connected
across the points, greatly increases the spark intensity and the life
of the breaker points. High tension current is generated within the coils, each
of which is connected to a spark plug by a high tension cable.
38. IGNITION BREAKER ASSEMBLY, a. Breaker arm and points (fig. 3,
(1)) consist of the following five component parts:
(1) Stationary point. The stationary point (fig. 7, (37)) fastens to
the ignition breaker.box (fig. 7, (35)).
(2) Stationary point lock nut. K brass hex nut (fig. 7, (38)) locks the
stationary point in position.
(3) Arm point. The arm point (fig. 7, (36)) is an integral part of the
breaker arm.
(4) Arm to ground wire. Grounds arm to box.
(5) Breaker arm. The breaker arm (fig. 7, (39)) pivots on the arm
stud (fig. 7, (42)). It is lifted by the plunger and depressed by the spring.
b. Disassembling. (1) Remove ignition breaker box cover.
(2) Compress and remove spring.
Caution-. Cover rear generator vent openings to prevent dropping the
ignition breaker spring into the generator.
(3) Remove the breaker arm from arm stud.
c. Cleaning disassembled parts. Use a clean lintless cloth, dampened
with dry cleaning solvent to wipe all parts of the ignition breaker and the
interior of the ignition breaker box. Thoroughly wipe all parts with a dry
clean lintless cloth.
d. Inspecting points. Determine if points are burned, pitted, or have a
carbonlike deposit. Reface the points if any of these conditions exist.
e. Refacing points. Use the ignition point file (fig. 2, (5)), to reface
the points. File points until each face is free of pits or deposit and has a
clean metallic appearance.
f. Replacing points. (1) If points cannot be refaced, replace with a new
breaker arm and points. (See fig. 3, (1).)
(2) Replace disassembled arm with new arm.
(3) Loosen lock nut on stationary point.
(4) Remove stationary point.
(5) Install new stationary point in breaker box.
(6) Fasten lock nut.
g. Reassembling. (1) Place breaker arm on arm stud.

second echelons. No other services will be attempted.
b. The cylinder heads support the spark plugs and form the combustion
chambers (fig. 9, (5)) over the cylinders and pistons. The electrodes of the
spark plugs extend into the combustion chambers. The exterior fins are a
means of dissipating the heat from the cylinder heads. The intake valve
(fig. 9, (23)) opens to permit the passage of the fuel-air mixture into the
combustion chamber during the intake' stroke of the engine and seals off the
combustion chamber during the compression, power, and exhaust strokes. The
exhaust valve (fig. 9, (24)) opens during the exhaust stroke to permit the
escape of the burned gases to the exhaust manifold and seals the combustion
chamber during the intake, compression, and power strokes. The valves are
opened when the camshaft lifts the valve lifters (fig. 9, (13) and (36)), and
are closed by the valve springs. (See fig. 9, (20) and (41).) Valve tappets
(fig. 9, (15) and (38)) are a means of adjusting the clearance between the
valve lifters and the valves.

70. CLEANING, TESTING, INSPECTING, AND REPLACING PARTS, a.
Cleaning parts. Use a clean cloth, slightly dampened with dry-cleaning solvent
to wipe any oil and dirt from the coil shoes, back plate, and inner side
of blower wheel.
b. Testing coils. (1) Use test meter in Medical Department maintenance
and repair tool set, 9N45705.
(2) Set meter for continuity test.
(3) Connect meter leads to terminal ends of one coil. Meter should
show continuity.
(4) Connect a meter lead to one terminal end of a coil and move other
meter lead about the exterior of the same coil. If meter shows continuity during
this test it indicates faulty external insulation. |
(5) It is possible for the coil to be internally shorted which is cause
lor replacement. This defect is difficult to detect by means of a test meter. /
An internal short would show the coil to have less resistance than the other
and would, if the short is serious, result in too little output to bridge the
spark plug gap during the ignition system test. (See par. 40.)
c. Inspecting disassembled parts. (1) Coil shoes. Inspect for excessive
rust or corrosion.
(2) Wiring. Inspect for frayed or worn insulation.
d. Replacing parts. Parts which are found to be defective will be
replaced with new when reassembling. (See par. 71a.)
71. REASSEMBLING AND INSTALLING, a. Reassembling. (1) Slip
coils on coil shoes. Be careful not to damage the insulation of the coils.
(2) Bend one lamination over the end of each coil to retain it in position.
Again be careful not to damage the coil insulation.
(3) Solder the intercoil wire connection.
(4) Slip insulating tube over the intercoil connecting wire.
(5) If coil shoes have been removed position them exactly as marked
when disassembling.
(6) Insert four screws through shoes and fasten to back plate.
(7) To aid in determining proper connections make use of the wiring
diagram. (See fig. 15.)
b. Installing. (1) Insert both screws through slotted holes of back plate
and screw into taps in gearcase. Do not tighten.

REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
Section XXVI. GOVERNOR AND BOOSTER REPAIR
73. GENERAL, a. This section contains instructions on the repair of the
governor and booster. The existing setting of the governor and booster should
never be changed unless necessary as after a major engine overhaul.
b. Purpose of governor and booster. (1) Governor. The governor maintains
a constant engine speed of 1,800 RPM. This control is accomplished
by means of four weights (tig. 16, (18)) pivoted on a revolving pivot
plate, (fig. 16, (17)) which is fastened to the camshaft gear. When the
engine speed increases, the weights pivot outward and react on a series of
shafts and links which throttle down the engine. If the engine speed decreases,
the weights are pivoted inward by the tension of the governor spring
(fig. 16, (16)) and results in the throttle opening and increasing the engine
speed. This is a constant balancing of engine speeds but it will be noted that
there must be a change in engine speed before the governor functions.
(2) Booster. The booster also maintains a constant engine speed of
1,800 RPM but is on instantaneous electrical action. The booster coil (fig.
16, (6)) is connected in series with one line to the cable outlet. When the
X-ray load is placed on the generator, the current flow through the coil is
increased. This reacts on the throttle linkage and opens the throttle to offset
the drop in engine speed, which results from a load being placed on the
generator. This, therefore, is the purpose of the booster, to open the throttle
wider at the same instant the load is applied to the generator, to avoid, a decrease
in engine speed. If the governor were the only controlling member the
engine speed would decrease momentarily until the governor leveled off the
speed.
74. REMOVING AND DISASSEMBLING, a. Removing governor. (1)

(4)) and turn it clockwise, view as in figure 17, as far as possible. This will
place the throttle plate in the closed position.
(e1) Hold throttle shaft in closed position and set carburetor throttle
arm (fig. 17, (26)) at an angle of 30° to the right of vertical as shown in
figure 17.
(/) Tighten throttle arm screw. There should be a few thousandths of
an inch clearance between the throttle arm and the shaft washer behind it to
prevent any binding.
(g) Turn in the throttle arm stop adjusting screw until two threads are
exposed as in figure 17.
(Z?) Tighten stop adjusting screw lock nut.
(z) Set throttle arm stop (fig. 17, (3)) until the adjusting screw is in
contact with the stop flange (fig. 17, (28)) on the throttle arm with throttle
still held in closed position.
(;) Tighten throttle arm stop to carburetor screw. (See fig. 17, (5).)
(2) Setting governor arm and linkage. These are approximate settings
and may require slight changes after testing. (See b below.)

77
X-RAY FIELD UNIT GENERATOR
4% inches as shown in figure 17. Do not vary the l/8 inch gap between lock
nuts on plunger and ball joint.
(/) Tighten throttle rod to plunger lock nut.
fgj Check position of ball joint in relation to governor rod arm. (See
fig. 17, (16).) The ball joint housing must rest directly over the ball and
not be tilted to either side or angled up or down from the pivot point. Correct
any variation from this position by loosening throttle rod to plunger lock
nut and turn plunger to right or left until ball housing is directly over ball.
Then tighten lock nut.
(b) Check entire governor mechanism for freedom of movement.
(z) Check that arm rod nut (fig. 17, (12)) is loose.

(zzz) Remove 1/16 inch wedge from between the throttle arm stop
flange and adjusting screw.
(zz) Check that the 1/16 inch gap remains between stop flange and adjusting
screw.
(3) Setting booster coil housing. These are approximate settings and may
require slight changes after testing. (See b below.)
(a) Check position of plunger through bore of coil. It should be nearly
centered within the bore through all movement of the linkage. The throttle rod
end of the plunger should be approximately even with the same end of the
coil when throttle is in full open position.
(b) Loosen screws which fasten coil housing to bracket and bracket to
breather tube as necessary to position coil as previously stated. Make correction
of coil position and tighten screws.
b. Testing and final adjustment. (1) Start plant (par. 14) and allow
it to warm up. (See par. 15.)

(3) Connect test meter leads across cable outlet receptacle.
(4) Turn governor spring adjusting nut (fig. 17, (8)) clockwise or
counterclockwise as necessary until test meter indicates 127 volts to 131 volts.
If an engine revolution counter is available, check to see that the engine is
operating at approximately 1,770 to 1,830 RPM and producing 127 volts
to 131 volts respectively.
■ (5) Manually hold throttle in closed position. The voltage will drop as
indicated by the test meter.
(6) Loosen stop adjusting screw lock nut.
(7) Turn stop adjusting screw clockwise until test meter indicates a
minimum of 115 volts.
(8) Tighten stop adjusting screw lock nut.

have a bright surface. Wipe with a clean dry cloth.
d. Remove brushes from holders and wipe brushes and interior of
holders.
e. Do not use cleaning solvents or lubricating oil on the generator parts.
99. INSPECTING BRUSHES, BRUSH SPRINGS, AND BALL BEARING.
Follow instruction in paragraph 55 for inspection and service of the generator
brushes, brush springs, and ball bearing.
100. INSPECTING COMMUTATOR AND SLIP RINGS, a. Commutator.
(1) Inspect for high mica. The mica insulation between commutator bars
wears more slowly than the copper bars. After a long period of service the
mica will be even or above the level of the bars and cause severe sparking between
the brushes and bars. This condition will cause the burning or pitting
of commutator bars. Mica should be 1 /32 inch below surface of commutator
bars. If mica is even or above bars follow instructions for cutting down armature.
(See par. 102.)
(2) Inspect for loose bars. If personnel experienced in generator service
are not available to reseat loose armature bars the entire armature will
have, to be replaced with a new armature (fig. 10, (25)) when reassembling
generator. (See par. 103.)
(3) Inspect for uneven bars. If one or more commutator bars are slightly
out of round with the remainder of the bars the commutator can be turned
down on a lathe and the mica undercut. If the equipment or personnel are
not available to accomplish this repair the entire armature can be replaced
with a new one when reassembling the generator.
(4) Inspect for burned bars. Seriously burned bars will require the same
services as given for unever bars, (3) above. A slight mahogany color of the
commutator does not indicate burned bars.
b. Slip ring. Inspect for burned or out of round condition. Turn down
in a lathe. If the equipment or personnel are not available to accomplish
this repair, the entire armature can be replaced with a new one when reassembling
the generator.
101. TESTING ARMATURE AND FIELD COILS, a. General. (1) The
generator wiring diagram (fig. 21) is included in the manual to serve as a
guide when testing and servicing the generator.
(2) Use the test meter from the Medical Department maintenance and
repair tool chest, 9N45705.
(3) Set test meter to indicate continuity.

REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
b. Test DC winding of armature. (1) Place one test meter lead on commutator
and the other on commutator shaft.
(2) Reading, (a) Meter should not indicate continuity.
(£) If meter does indicate continuity the armature is grounded to shaft.
Replace with a new armature (fig. 10, (25)) when reassembling generator.
(See par. 103.)
c. Test AC winding of armature. (1) Place one test meter lead on one
slip ring and the other lead on the second slip ring.
(2) Reading, (a) Test meter should indicate continuity.
(b) If test meter does not indicate continuity the AC winding is open
Replace the armature when reassembling generator.
(3) Place one test meter lead on the armature shaft and the other alternately
on each of the slip rings.
(4) Reading, (a) Meter should not indicate continuity.
(A) If meter does indicate continuity the AC winding is grounded to
armature shaft. Replace the armature when reassembling generator.
d. Test field coils for open circuit. (1) Connect one test meter lead on
either field coil lead. Place other meter lead on the second lead from field
coil.
(2) Reading, (a) Meter should indicate continuity.
(b) If meter does not indicate continuity the field coil set is open. Inspect
for loose or broken leads. If break is within field coils, replace with
new field coil set. (See fig. 10, (1).)
e. Test field coils for grounding. (1) Connect one test meter lead to
either field coil lead. Place other meter lead on generator frame.
(2) Readings, (a) Meter should not indicate continuity.
(b) If meter indicates continuity the field coils are grounded to generator
frame. Replace with new field coil set when reassembling generator.
102. UNDERCUTTING COMMUTATOR, a. Tool. Grind the cutting edge
of a hack saw blade to the same width as the mica strips. Also grind one end
to a point.
b. Procedure. Cut each mica strip until it is 1/32 inch below the surface
of the commutator bars.
c. Clean commutator. After undercutting mica be certain to wipe
away all mica dust with a clean dry cloth.
103. REASSEMBLING, a. Install brush rig. (1) Check that ail brushes
are in the raised position, that is, not extending beyond the inner ends of
the brush holders.
(2) Place brush rig within end ball housing. Be certain the yellow indicating
mark on edge of brush rig is in line with the matching mark on
the inner side of the bell housing.
(3) Insert and tighten the four screws which fasten brush rig to end
bell housing. Again check to see that the yellow marks are in line.
b. Installing new field coil set. If inspection revealed the field coil set to
be open or shorted install a new set as follows:
(1) Note the position of old field coil set in generator frame. Install
the new set in the same position.
(2) Remove the three screws holding each of the four pole shoes to the
generator frame.
