How to Change the Brushes in your K-9 III High Velocity Dryer
Things You’ll Need:
- No.2 Phillip Screwdriver
- Flathead Screwdriver
- Replacement Brushes
Step 1: Remove the Old Brush
Use your flathead screwdriver to remove the old brush by putting it between the tab and the brush housing. Slowly and carefully use it as a lever to push the old brush away from the tab to take it out. Gently tap down on the flathead screwdriver to give it more force without damaging your brush or your motor.
Use a number 2 Phillip Screwdriver to unfasten the brush from the motor.
Step 2: Installing the New Brush
Notice that there is a little nib on the housing of your brush. That should be facing down. Gently push the brush down to the commutator of the motor. Also, make sure the copper tab goes in the slot above the brush. Make sure that the brush is seated all the way forward.
Step 3: Fasten and secure the New Brush in place
Use your no. 2 Phillip screwdriver to secure the new brush in place.
