If the brush does not spring out, gently remove it using the tip of your screwdriver. Examine the Brush surface. The surface should be smooth and clean. If scratch marks appear, or

if the brush is broken, replace the brush immediately with an approved replacement brush from Harbor Freight tools.

3.If the brush appears fine and only dirty, you may clean it off with a pencil eraser. Gently rub with the eraser until the dirt has been removed. Remove any eraser dust which may have occurred during cleaning.

4.Re-insert the Brushes. There is a spring and plug attached to each brush.

1.Replace the Carbon Brushes in pairs. Normal Carbon Brush life is from 500 to 2000 hours, depending on use.
