When the resin insulating tip inside the carbon brush
is exposed to contact the commutator, it will automati-

brushes should be replaced. Keep the carbon brushes
clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon
brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only
identical carbon brushes.

Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps.
Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones

using Makita replacement parts.
