Motor brushes are worn.
NOTE:
Brushes do not wear at the same rate on
both sides of motor. Check both brushes.
Check length of brushes. Brush length must
be 0.25 in. (6.4 mm) minimum. If brushes
are worn, replace motor using

Motor brushes are binding in brush holders.
Clean brush holders, remove carbon dust
with small cleaning brush.
Motor stops before sprayer reaches correct
