Component Testing: Commutator
- If commutator out-of-round is more than .002" (.05 mm), turn the commutator on a lathe until out-of-round is within specification.
- On all models except Impulse, wear or cutting limit of commutator is 1.34" (34 mm). On Impulse, wear or cutting limit of commutator is 1.14" (29 mm) on A/T models and 1.06" (27 mm) on M/T models. On all models, standard undercut depth for insulating mica is .028-.035" (.71-.89). Minimum undercut depth is .008" (.20 mm).
