4. Discharge the field capacitor by connecting
the jumper wire clips on the white and red

Leads #200, #200A and #200B are piggy-
backed on the positive (+) terminal.
Depending on the bridge used, this corner
may be beveled and/or marked with a +
sign.
Lead #201 is located on the negative (-) ter-
minal, which will always be located diago-
nally across from the positive (+) terminal.
The two leads #7 and #9 are the AC side of
the bridge and attach to the other two cor-
ners of the rectifier. Either lead can go on
either terminal.

also for clearance and tightness.

metal screws and 5/16” and 1/8” nut dri-
