Motor Brushes
Figure 34. Motor brush location.
The motor on the Model G0938 is equipped with
two long-life carbon brushes—one on each side
of the motor. The brush life is affected by motor
loads and usage. Worn brushes will result in inter-
mittent operation and difficulty starting the motor.
If either brush is worn down to
1
⁄4" (6mm) or less,
replace both brushes as a set.

Calibrating Table Tilt

Note: The table tilt scale is only an approximate
scale and should not be used when precise angle
measurements are required for the operation.
