Important:
These brushes wear quicker as the length shortens due to in- creased heat.
Spring inside brush housing will damage motor if brushes are allowed to wear away completely.
If armature commutator is not concentric, extremely pitted, or grooved the motor will need to be replaced or sent to a qualified service center to restore vac performance.
