CHANGING THE CARBON BRUSHES
After extensive use, the carbon brushes will become worn and should be
checked if the motor seems to be lacking power. Replacements are available
from your dealer.
1. Unscrew the carbon brush cover
using a screwdriver.
2. The carbon brush should spring
out.
• If the carbon is worn to a length
of 6mm or less, or if the spring or
contact wire is burned or
damaged, replace both
brushes.
3. Replace each carbon brush
cover, taking care not to cross thread it.
