source. Failure to do so may result in serious
personal injury.

REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES (FIG. 35)
NOTICE: Replace both carbon brushes when

remaining, or if the spring or wire is damaged
or burned.
To inspect or replace brushes, rst unplug
the saw.
Loosen the cutting head lock knob (DD) and
pull out the hold-down latch (FF) to raise the
cutting head at the maximun height. Release
the hold-down latch and tighten the cutting
head lock knob.
Loosen the bevel lock knob to tilt the cutting
head at 45° clockwise. Tighten the bevel lock
knob.
Then, remove the black plastic cap (1) on the
side of the motor. Remove the cap cautiously,
because it is springloaded. Pull out the carbon
brushes (PP) and replace.
The ears on the metal end of the assembly
go in the same hole the carbon part ts into.
Tighten the cap snugly, but do not overtighten.
Repeat for the carbon brushes located on the
other side of motor.

NOTICE: To reinstall the same brushes, rst make sure the brushes go back in the way they came
out. This will avoid a break-in period that reduces motor performance and increases wear.
