REPLACING THE CARBON MOTOR
BRUSHES
The carbon motor brushes will wear down and
require replacing. The time intervals between
replacements will vary depending upon the
torques being achieved and the hours of use. It
is recommended that the brushes be checked
after each 10 hours of use. When the length of
the carbon brush reaches 1/4" (6.35 mm), the
brushes should be replaced.
WARNING: Make sure the oscillating
tool is unplugged from the power source.
Removing worn motor brushes
1. Remove any accessory that has been
installed on the tool.
2. Lay the tool on its left side on a towel or on
corrugated (Fig. 12).
3. Remove 5 screws (1) from the right hand
side of the handle (2) using a #2
screwdriver.
NOTE: The two screws at the rear of the handle
(3) are shorter than the other three. These must
be replaced in the same position when replacing
the handle screws.
4. Carefully lift off the right hand half of the
handle.
NOTE: Make sure you note the positioning of
the speed control wheel and all the wires. They
