Field Winding and Starting Motor Housing (10) Pole Shoes (11) Field Winding (Coil) (13) Starting Motor Housing The starting motor housing (13) supports the field winding (coil) (11), the pole shoes (10), the brush holder (9), and the brushes (8). These parts are removable. The field winding (11) and the pole shoes (10) provide the magnetic field for the armature. The field winding also contains a shunt coil on 37-MT starting motors. The armature rotational speed is limited by the shunt coil during engagement. This prevents damage to the pinion drive.

Armature (12) ArmatureArmature (12) consists of a laminated iron core which is assembled on the armature shaft. The armature also has a commutator on one end. The commutator is made of copper segments (bars) insulated from each other and insulated from the armature shaft. The armature windings are wound in the slots of the core. The armature windings are also connected to the commutator segments.The armature is positioned in the field winding and the pole shoes. The armature is supported by the brushings in the drive housing (6), the shift lever housing (4), and the rear housing (1) .The armature and the field winding are connected in series. The same current flows through each component. This generates high torque primarily when the motor is first started.

Brush Holder (9) Brush Holder (14) Brush SpringsThe brush holder (9) is mounted over the commutator to the starting motor housing. Four brushes are held against the commutator. Brush springs (14) keep pressure on the brushes so the brushes stay in contact with the commutator. Two brush holders are connected to the field winding positive (+) leads. The two negative brush holders are not insulated from the brush holder assembly onthe 37-MT and 41-MT starting motors. The two negative brush holders are connected to the negative terminal on the 42-MT starting motors.

Brushes (8) BrushThe brushes (8) are made of carbon. The brushes (8) conduct electricity. The brushes transmit current from the field winding to the commutator. There are four brushes. Two brushes are positive and two brushes are negative.

41-MT and 42-MT Pinion Drive (7) Pinion Drive (15) Pinion GearAs the engine starts to run, the speed eventually exceeds the starting motor speed. The overrunning clutch portion of the pinion drive (7) protects the starting motor from this overspeed condition. The mechanical connection between the engine flywheel and the starting motor is disengaged.The pinion drive (7) has a pinion gear (15) that engages the flywheel ring gear. The pinion gear
