Checking & Replacing the Motor Brushes
After a period of time the scroll saw’s motor brushes are due
to wear and may need replacing, please follow the instruction
below for checking and replacing the brushes.
1. There are two motor brush ports one on either side of the
motor assembly, using a small flat head screwdriver remove
one of the motor’s brush access plugs and place safely aside,
see fig 36-37.

is sprung loaded.

NOTE: Take careful note of the orientation of the brushes
when you remove them, remember that they have bedded
themselves to the profile of the commutator in that
position. If you fit them reversed they may not be in exactly
the same position, which can cause excessive sparking and
heat until they have re-bedded themselves.
