1. Clamp the starter in a soft grip vise and connect a fully charged 12V battery to the starter as follows:
2. Connect test ammeter (with a measurement limit up to 100 A) and carbon rheostat, as shown in the figure.
3. Connect a voltmeter as shown in the figure.
4. Set the carbon rheostat to the off position.
5. Connect the wire from the negative battery terminal to the starter housing.
6. Using a rheostat, set the voltage to 11 V using a voltmeter.
7. Turn on the starter and check that the maximum current consumption is correct, as well as the smoothness and ease of rotation of the starter armature. Current consumption: 85 A (130 A); armature speed: 2600 (3600) rpm
