Changing carbon brushes
If the carbon brushes have worn to a length of
less than 6 mm, this may reduce the perfor-
mance of the machine or cause the machine
to stop. In this case, the brushes (4.2) should
be replaced.
- Unscrew the cover (4.4) and remove the worn
brushes.
- Push in the retaining plate (4.3) on the new
carbon brushes until it latches into the notches
(4.1) and screw the covers back on.
- Operate the machine in idling state for a few
minutes so that the carbon brushes attain
optimal contact.
