- Easy way to remove the armature / rotor from a generator with a tapered shaft.

*100% best **Generater.Systems** I have used. A test for hurricane prep here in Louisiana: three AC units, 5000, 5000 & 8000, 3 fridges, 2 device power setups, 4 flat screens....AND I had 40% of the power meter to spare.*
Sitting on the floor of my shop with 2 shot ryobi 3800s on either side of me. I admit to getting as far as pulling the flywheel to see if there was another screw from the front of the case before i found your video. Thanks man.
Awesome work, James. Thanks for the tip. Working on a Generac 16kw with the exact same issue; your technique has saved it from a premature death-by-sledge-hammer. ;-p
We have used the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!
Appreciate your video man, I actually believe you
Great trick. Worked for me. Thanks for making this video!
This has been VERY HELPFUL !!! I have one with the same issue and was not sure what to do with it. Thanks
I used a 27/64” drill, m14x1.5 tap, m14 bolt, 5/16” all thread that I ground all the threads off of the firs 1”. I cut the all thread short enough I could thread about half the bolt in the armature.
It worked out really easily. I put all this apparatus in my box as a set if I ever need to do this again I will have everything I need. If everyone would keep it universal anyone watching this video will know exactly what to do. Drill,tap, bolt cost me $17.
Honestly all technicians should standardize and use only this method. Sure would make it easy on the next guy.
I love this video,I also did it as it was in the video and it works.
Thank you, very helpful!
Awesome. Very helpful. I have this lined up for tomorrow to swap two rotor/stators. I have one donor generator so I get to do this twice.
Question; This problem with my bad one is that one of the rings has intermittent connection to the field coil. I can measure resistance between the rings and push on one of the wires and the connection makes and breaks. I don't see anyway to fix the connection at the ring. Have you every repaired one?
Thanks for your videos. I have worked on many types of equipment but am new to generators. Your videos really helped me gain some understanding of how they work and how to troubleshoot.
I like the water trick best
Just drain oil and set it up
No mess to clean up later
That is the best way
Just used the water trick, great result. Quite scary when it let's go.
Do you have a video to remove the other parts which are already removed , the cover on bearing of rotor and other motor part on top of motor
There is a safer way to do this. I wrote a service update for emglo generators back in the day. The best way to remove the armature is to point the threaded end of the armature straight up the fill with oil leaving 1/8 inch of the threads uncovered by the oil.Take the bolt like you used and put teflon tape on it. Screw it in just as you did. oil is not compressible and the hydraulic pressure will pop it off the motor with no possibility of hurting the motor shaft.
Good lord.. things get that wedged in there? Jeez. I gotta take one off because the fan on the other side exploded and neex to put another on it..
The previous comment is how we did it because ours didn't have threads at the end. We could not find a video for without threads.
Wesley Weisel I have tried unsuccessfully the hammer method. I have one now without threads I need to remove. Usually I tap threads, but that is risky since the tap can break. Also saw that someone put a rod down the rotor shaft and was able to use an air hammer on the rod to break it loose.
@@jcondon1 I realize the comment before isn't what I did. We had a rod in the center, like the video, only it is longer. Have someone place a flat pry bar pushing the armature away from the motor. While pressure is on that, hammer in the rod.
Wesley Weisel that should work. I tried the same thing with an air hammer once. For me it did not work, but I will try it again.
Hello, I'm very curious. Does that rotor have a permanent magnet. If there is no magnet, where is DC current given to the rings on the rotor. Greetings. I am from Turkey. Do you know Turkey.
I know turkey, my wife & I eat one every thanksgiving.
Any one; need a video shoeing the removal of the back bearing on guardian generac 16 kW .automatic stand by unit.
Just curious but why can't you use a slide hammer instead?
You probably could. Have not tried it.
Try it and let us know if it works
all you need is a slide hammer and a bolt that fits the threading, got it out real easy
Yeah right. A slide hammer doesn't develop nearly the strength & pulling power as what he is doing.
easier than the way shown with "regular" tools? Naah. Poopoo
Oh the DRAMA of it all was just too much for me !!!
I need to do this to 2 Briggs powered generators because both have Plastic camshaft gears that have broken. Briggs and Stratton is criminally stupid
I tried different way with my generator, first I put a piece of wood on the rotor .. Then knocked it with a hammer until it came down
Can we move the dynamo of generator by motor?
You can, but the rotor required the tapered shaft and the engine to center it properly.
@@jcondon1 can you send me your WhatsApp number or Facebook my WhatsApp number is 0093728406490
My bearing has no threads!!!
Hader
Do you know what size bolt threads are for a Honda ES6500 stator?
Sorry do not know that info
Hi James. Thanks for making the videos!! I've found them very useful, informative, and strangely relaxing to watch. Your tutelage has me expanding my small engine "find 'em, fix 'em, sell 'em" hobby to include generators. I have stumbled on another method for removing armatures. I've tried it myself and it works great with no tapping of threads or water. You've probably seen this already but I thought I'd pass it on. Thanks, Dave th-cam.com/video/JOVPIS5a9is/w-d-xo.html
