1. Check the commutator contacting surface of each brush for abnormal roughness. Also check the height of the brush. Replace the brush holder if
the height is lower than the limit.
Limit: 7.0 mm (0.27 in)
2. When the contact surface of the brush is rectified or the brush holder is replaced, recondition the contact surface with sandpaper wrapped around
the commutator.
ARMATURE CHECK
1. Check that the armature coil is not grounded.
2. Place the armature in a growler.
3. Hold a thin steel blade parallel and just above the armature while slowly rotating in the growler. A shorted armature will cause a blade to vibrate
and be attracted to the core. Replace the shorted armature.
4. Check the insulation between the armature coil cores and the commutator segments. They are normal if there is no continuity.
