This brush and brush holder set is supplied by the original manufacturer for use in vacuums. It includes 2 carbon brushes, 2 brush holders, and two springs. The brushes have measurements of 1.5 inches long, 3/4 inches wide, and 3/16 inches thick. Over time the brushes may wear down, become damaged, or dislodged, leading to reduced power output, unusual noses, and difficulties starting the equipment. Ensure the equipment is switched off before beginning the repair. Remove the motor housing to access the brushes. Carefully remove the springs and fasteners that hold the brush and holders in place. Mount the new brush holders onto the motor and position the new brushes into the holders. Secure the brushes in place with the spring and reattach the motor housing to complete the repair.

The brushes on the motor were damaged during impeller repair. I bought this vac at a garage sale for $5 as a weekend project to see if I could fix it. This unit had the detachable leaf blower.
