REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES (FIG. CO)
Replace both carbon brushes when either has less

or wire is damaged or burned. To inspect or replace
brushes, first unplug the saw. Then remove the black
plastic cap (1) on the side of the motor (2). Remove the
cap cautiously, because it is springloaded. Then pull
out the brush and replace. Replace for the other side.
To reassemble reverse the procedure. The ears on
the metal end of the assembly go in the same hole the
carbon part fits into. Tighten the cap snugly, but do not
overtighten.
