MAINTENANCE (cont.)
BRUSH REPLACEMENT
Brush life will vary depending on the load placed on the motor. The brushes should be inspected
every 10-15 hours of use. To inspect or replace:
1.
Remove the brush holders (A). The other is located in the same position on the rear of the
motor assembly. The Brush Holder can be removed using a flat blade screwdriver.
2.
Once the brush has been removed, inspect the carbon (B), the spring (C), and the wire (D).
3.
If the carbon of either brush is worn down to 3/16” or less, both brushes should be replaced.
Also if the spring or wire are burned or damaged in any way, both brushes should be
replaced.
