b. Disconnect the Carbon Brush Leads as shown in the illustration above.

c.Use a small prying tool (not includ- ed) to hold the Spring Clips to the side while you remove the carbon brushes. Keep track of which orientation the old carbon brush- es were in to prevent needless wear if they will be reinstalled.

d.If either carbon brush is worn down by more than 1/2, replace both car- bon brushes.

e.To clean old carbon brushes before reusing them, rub the contact areas with a pencil eraser.

f.Hold the spring clips to the side and reinsert the old carbon brushes in the same orientation to reduce wear.

g.When installing the carbon brushes, make sure the carbon portions of the carbon brushes contact the motor

armature, and that the springs face away from the motor. Also, make sure the springs operate freely.

h. Reconnect the Carbon Brush Leads.

i.Replace the Brush Caps and Screws. Do not overtighten.

Note: New carbon brushes tend to spark when first used until they wear and conform to the motor’s armature.

7.WARNING! If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced only by a qualified service technician.
