MOTOR BRUSHES
The electric motors that power your Jazzy 1120 use carbon brushes. These brushes may become susceptible to
wear over a long period of time. The motor brushes are the two contacts located inside the motor assembly that
supply power to the motor. They are designed to provide several thousand hours of operation. However, if the
brushes become dirty with carbon deposits or wear out, the motor will run poorly or not at all. We recommend that
your authorized Pride provider inspect the brushes every six months, or sooner if your Jazzy 1120 runs poorly.
CAUTION! If inspection determines excessive wear on the brushes, they must be replaced or
motor damage will result. Failure to maintain the brushes could void the warranty.
To inspect or replace the motor brushes:
1. Remove the seat, body shroud, and batteries. See VII.
Disassembly.
2. Unscrew the motor brush caps. See figure 49.
3. Remove the brushes.
4. Inspect for wear.
5. Replace brushes, if necessary. Contact your authorized Pride provider for replacement brushes.
