ANDERSON SERIES 18 AND 20 (1918-19-20-21) WESTINGHOUSE GENERATING, STARTING AND LIGHTING SYSTEM REMY IGNITION BATTERY.— Willard, Type SJWN-4, 6 volt, 113 ampere-hour. The positive (-++-) ter- minal is grounde IGNITION.—Coil Model No. 284B. Distributor Model No. 366C. Breaker contacts sep- arate .022 inch. When the condition of the contacts affects the ignition, resurface with a fine, flat jeweler’s file or worn No. 00 sandpaper. OILING.—Refill the cup under the distributor head with soft cup grease and turn down two turns every two weeks, Put a small amount of vaseline on the fiber bumper of the contact arm, applying with a toothpick. If the car is driven more than 500 miles in two weeks, these attentions must be given every 500 miles. TIMING.—Breaker contacts begin to separate when the top dead center mark on the fly- wheel is 1 inch past the indicator, spark control lever and breaker assembly in the fully retarded position. FIRING ORDER.—The firing order is 1, 5, 3, 6, 2, 4. SPARK PLUG GAPS.—Spark plug gaps are .030 inch. STARTER:—Frame 710 or 711. Starter is connected to the engine through a Bendix drive.

GENERATOR.—Frame 760. Generator current regulation is by third brush system. Max- imum current output is 15-17 amperes, reached at 1250 R.P.M. of the armature, on 20 miles per hour.

The shunt field current is 2.8 to 3.25 am- peres when 6 volts pressure is applied. When generator is operating freely as a motor, the current is 3.5 to 5 amperes at 6 to 6.6 volts. OILING.—Put 5 or 6 drops of light engine oil in each of the generator oilers every two weeks. If the car is driven more than 500 miles in two weeks, the oiling must be done every 500 miles. RELAY.—Relay is mounted in generator frame. Relay closes at 500-550 R.P.M. of the generator armature or 8-9 miles per hour and opens at 450-500 R.P.M. of the arma- ture or 7-8 miles per hour. Charging current is 1-2 amperes at closing, and the dis- charge current 0-2 amperes at the opening of relay contacts. Air gap between relay armature (moving member) and coil core is .031 inch, contacts separated. Contacts separate .013 to .018 inch. Clean relay contacts by drawing unglazed paper between them. If badly burned or pitted, resurface with well worn No. 00 sandpaper. Remove all grit. Adjust before again putting into service. LAMPS.—Head lamps are 6-8 volt, 21 cp. Dimmer lamps are 6-8 volt, 4cp. Dash and tail lamps are 6-8 volt, 2 cp. FUSES.—Fuses are 5 amnere.
