HBC19A/HBC25A REBAR CUTTER • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #4 (03/30/09) — PAGE 11
REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES
When the carbon becomes less than 5 or 6 mm (1/4 inch)
the motor force deteriorates because of low rectification
(Figure 4). The carbon brushes need to be replaced at this
time. It is also recommended that the brushes be replaced
after 200 hours of use.
WARNING
Unplug unit from power source before replacing carbon
brushes.
