MOTOR BRUSHES
The electric motors that power your Jet 12 use carbon
brushes. These brushes are susceptible to wear over a long
period of time. If worn, the motors run poorly or not at all.
We recommend that your authorized Pride provider inspect
the brushes every six months, or sooner if your Jet 12 runs
poorly.
CAUTION! If inspection determines exces-
sive wear on the brushes, they must be
replaced or motor damage will result. Fail-
ure to maintain the brushes could void the
Jet 12s warranty.
