Checking and Changing Carbon Brushes for the H.MH-170 or H.MH-17018
A spare set of carbon brushes is usually supplied with a new handpiece. Depending on how long the handpiece is used each day, the brushes should be checked for wear about every 200 hours of use and replaced when the brush is less than 2mm (5/64") long.
1. With handpiece power cord disconnected from control box, unscrew protective cap from rear of motor (see Figure 5) by turning in counterclock?wise direction while gripping the handpiece body. (It has a standard right hand thread.)
2. With small crosspoint screwdriver remove screws and brush as?sem?blies one at a time. Check length of carbon brush from spring to curved side of brush.
Brushes should be removed and replaced (if less than 2mm in length) one at a time. Replace both brushes with new ones even if only one of them looks worn.
