Perhaps this manual will do it but it has a 1972 date

That manual is great.  I just finished rebuilding a starter/gen tonight.  Cleaned up, painted, New bearings, Brushes were still good, can't find them down here anyway.  Looks like new. Just waiting to finish the assembly on the 1056 and the Kohler.  Look good, hope it operates correctly!
