Checking and replacing the
Carbon Brushes
WARNING: Disconnect the machine from
the power supply before attempting to
check or replace the Carbon Brushes.
To remove the brushes:
• Unscrew the 2 plastic caps found
towards the base of either side of the
motor housing. Be careful as the caps are
spring-loaded.

• You must replace both carbon brushes
if one has less than 6mm length of
carbon remaining, or if the spring or wire
is damaged or burned.
• Withdraw the brushes with their springs.
• If replacement is necessary renew the
brushes and replace the caps.
• Ensure the caps screw back freely.
Note: Used but serviceable brushes can
be replaced, but only as long as they are
returned to the same position, and inserted
the same way round, as they were removed
from the machine.
• Run new brushes without load for
approximately 5 minutes. This will help
the bedding-in process.
