Carbon Brushes
The carbon brushes are a normal wearing part and must be replaced when they reach their wear limit. This
machine is equipped with auto-stop carbon brushes. If the machine comes to a stop unexpectedly, the brushes
should be checked. The auto-stop brush design protects the motor by stopping the machine before the carbon
brushes are completely worn out.
Caution: Always replace the brushes as a pair.
To replace
1.
Remove the screw and remove the brush cover.
2.
Using pliers rotate the brush spring out of the way and slide
the old carbon brush out of the brush holder.
3.
Unscrew the screw to remove the brush lead. The old
carbon brush may now be lifted away.
4.
Install a new brush. Installation is the reverse of removal.
5.
Replace the brush cover.
If the replacement of the power supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or
their agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
WARNING: All repairs must be entrusted to an authorized service center. Incorrectly performed repairs
could lead to injury or death.
