BRUSH INSPECTION AND
REPLACEMENT
BEFORE INSPECTING BRUSHES, DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
Brush life varies, depends on the load on the motor. Check the brushes after the first 50 hours of use of a new machine, or after a new set of brushes has been installed.
After the first check, examine them after about 10 hours of use, until replacement is necessary.
The brush holders (A) Fig. 44, are located on the motor housing opposite each other. Fig. 45, illustrates one of the brushes removed for inspection. When the carbon on either brush (B) is worn to 3/16" in length, or if either spring or shunt wire (C) is burned or damaged in any way, replace both brushes. If the brushes are found serviceable after removing, reinstall them in the same position.
