Brush Reassembly

MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE GROUND WIRE IS SECURELY RECON-
NECTED TO THE GROUND TERMINAL IF REMOVED. LEADS,
INTERNAL TO THE SHIELD, MUST BE ROUTED AWAY FROM THE
ARMATURE, (E.G.: BE CLOSE TO THE INSIDE WALL OF THE
ALUMINUM SHIELD) TO PREVENT A SAFETY HAZARD AND/OR
DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR.

1. Install the brush (pig-tail) terminal end under the

screw on the brush box in the same manner as the
old brush that was removed and tighten the screw.

2. Slide the body of the brush into the brush box, be

certain that the wire (pig-tail) is aligned with the slot
in the base of the brush box so that it can "feed" into
the brush box slot as the brush wears down.

NOTE: The pig-tail wire should be formed to rest against the nonme-

tallic insulator. It must be spaced from any metallic surfaces
other than the brush box by a minimum of .125 in. (3mm).

3. Now install the brush retaining spring bracket. Grasp

the tip of the spring bracket such that the roll-type
spring will be on the "brush side" of the brush box,
and resting on top of the brush when the brush
spring is completely installed.

4. Push the spring bracket slowly into it’s slot while let-

ting it’s two attaching hooks slide on the wall of the
brush box.

5. Stop, but do not release the spring bracket when it’s

hooks slip around the edge of the brush box.

6. While still grasping the spring bracket with the pliers,

slowly bring the spring back out of the brush box
until the hooks latch around the edge of the brush
box.

7. Now release the spring bracket and check that it is

lying flat against the brush box wall. If it is "cocked" it
is improperly seated and will have to be reinstalled.

IMPORTANT

THE SPRING BRACKET MUST BE ALSO LIE COMPLETELY INSIDE
THE BRUSH BOX AND NOT OUT OVER THE EDGE. THE ROLL
END OF THE SPRING MUST BE CENTERED ON THE TOP OF THE
BRUSH. (SEE ILLUSTRATION FOLLOWING)

8. Also apply slight pressure by pulling up on the

spring bracket to be certain it is hooked securely
around the brush box wall at the bottom of the brush
box.

9. Screw the brush caps back into the end shield using

the largest possible screwdriver.

10. Reinstall the drive motor(s) to the machine and

reconnect the power source.

IMPORTANT

NEW BRUSHES MAY BE SEATED BY RUNNING THE DRIVE
MOTOR AT NO LOAD. PROPER SEATING IS REQUIRED FOR
LOWEST BRUSH NOISE LEVEL.
