- Lift up the rubber covers (4) over the traction motors.
- Remove the brush cover on the traction motors (1) and (5).

NOTE: When lifting the springs from the motor brushes and putting them on the holder, be sure that
they do not slide off and open, as compressing them when the motors are installed is extremely
difficult
