Replacing the Motor Brushes
(electric motor)
Perform this procedure using Motor Brush Kit P/N 978-050.
The kit consists of two brushes, two springs, and two clips.
1. Remove both inspection covers on the motor.
2. Push in the spring clip to unhook it, then pull it out..
3. Loosen the terminal screw. Pull the brush lead away, but
leave the motor lead in place. Remove the brush and
spring.
4. Inspect the commutator for burning, excessive pitting or
gouging. A black color on the commutator is normal.
5. Install the new brush so its lead slides in the long slot of
the brush holder. Push the terminal under the terminal
screw washer. Ensure the motor lead is still connected at
the screw. Tighten the screw.
6. Place the spring on the brush as shown above. Push in
and hook the spring clip. Repeat this procedure for the
other side.
7. Reinstall both inspection covers.
