Removal
1. Move brush shunts out of the way from the spring.
2. Note the brush ramp position and spring location before removing brushes.
Brushes must be installed in the same orientations.
3. Push the spring handle until it clicks. This indicates that the spring is
disengaged from the brush holder.
4. Carefully remove the spring (Do not pull on the coiled spring.) Disconnect the
brush shunt from the brush holder and remove brush.
Re-assembly
1. Insert the brushes in the brush holder. Position the ramp in exactly the same
as it was when removed.
2. Install the spring assembly so that the bottom of the brush ramp is closest to
the spring assembly.
3. Press on the spring assembly to ensure the hook on the end of the spring
engages with the brush holder.
4. Connect the brush shunts.
