- Check brush length. See BRUSH LENGTH SPECIFICATIONS TABLE . If brush length is less than specified, replace brushes.
- Using brush spring scale, measure spring tension. See BRUSH TENSION SPECIFICATIONS TABLE . If tension is less than specified, replace brush holder assembly. Ensure brushes move freely in holders.
