BRUSH REPLACEMENT 

 

Brush life will vary depending on the load placed on the motor. The brushes should be inspected 

every 10-15 hours of use. To inspect or replace: 

 

1. 

Remove the brush holders, one of which is shown at (A). The other is located in the same 

position on the rear of the motor assembly. The Brush Holder can be removed using a flat 

blade screwdriver. SEE FIG 12

 

 
 
                 
 
 
 

 
           
FIG 12                                                                    FIG 13 
 

2. 

Once the brush has been removed, inspect the carbon (B), the spring (C), and the wire (D).   

SEE FIG 13. 

3. 

If the carbon of either brush is worn down to 3/16” or less, both brushes should be replaced. 
Also if the spring or wire are burned or damaged in any way, both brushes should be replaced.
