7-2 Replacing 
Motor 
Brushes 
Note: 
Make sure that you replace motor brushes before the brush shunt 
touches the commutator. Replacements and spares are available 
from the manufacturer.
 
 
SS/CS Series hopper loader vacuum motor brushes require periodic replacement. Maintain a 
supply of motor brushes, and establish a preventive maintenance program to reduce downtime. 
Make sure that you properly seat replacement brushes to achieve maximum service life. 
Unseated brushes may fail prematurely and increase your maintenance workload.

the electrical supply!

cover assembly by the edges.

brush holder.
