undercut A.
If abnormal wear is found, replace the armature with a new one.
If the commutator surface is discolored, polish it with #400 sand-
paper and wipe it using a clean, dry cloth.
If there is no undercut, scrape out the insulator 1 with a saw
blade.

segment and the armature shaft using the multi circuit tester.
If there is no continuity between the segments or there is conti-
nuity between the segments and shaft, replace the armature
