Replacing Feed Motor
Brushes
This planer is equipped with a universal motor
that uses two carbon brushes to transmit
electrical current inside the motor. These
brushes are considered to be regular "wear
items" or "consumables" that will need to be
replaced during the life of the motor. The
frequency of required replacement is often
related to how much the motor is used and how
hard it is pushed.
Replace the carbon brushes at the same time
when the motor no longer reaches full power,
or when the brushes measure less than
1
⁄
4
" long
(new brushes are
5
⁄
8
" long).
