BRUSH-COVER 2610911859

I found on a forum that these parts will work to replace the brush holders on my ryobi c356 chop saw, so I ordered them, sure enough they fit like OEM parts and my saw is back up and working better than new. simply take off the motor end cap cover, loosen the I believe 2.5mm Allen set screw, use needle nose to unplug the spade connector g ... Read more oing to the brush holder, pull the old holder out, place new brush holder in, secure with the set screw, bend the spade tab out to clear the motors communicator, plug in the spade connection, replace brushes and brush caps, replace motor end cap cover and test the unit, hope this helps.

Unplugged the saw. Tilted the motor to 45 degrees. Removed 3 screws to remove the cover off the motor. Cut one of the wires going to speed controller, removed one wire nut and unplugged third wire from the motor. Replaced the speed controller. reconnected the wires. replaced the motor cover.

Replaced the broken brush cap and the other one. With a screwdriver

1. Removed the blade assemble
2. Remove the motor assemble
3. Got stuck on how to remove the armature.
4. Took off Blade lock assembly then broke the screw
5. Armature still stuck
6. Took off blade height adjustment to see if could find a way to take off the armature
7. Took off the table top from mount ... Read more . Could not find a way to remove armature
8. Table saw in pieces. Jump up and down scream a !
9. Ready to dump the table saw, then read comments on ereplacement blog and found answer on where armature screws were
10. Take off armature. Ordered parts. Took to shop to remove bearing. Pressed new bearing in
11. Took off gear cover, found out that need to pull gear off, then bearing, to remove gear assembly from gear cover. Did not have the new bearing and old one was fine. Decided not to change gear cover. Did not repair blade lock and will use a piece of wood to remove saw blade
12. Put everything back then found out needed to take everything apart in order to put armature back on. Needed to do first. Wasted 1 hour of work. Jump up and down again. screamed and yelled. Saw recommendation in blog to use long screws, I did not have any. Used 12awg electrical wire to line up holes. pulled as close as I could carefully. Tried for 20 minutes. Ready to scream and yell #!#$!@#!! but was eventually successful in getting the mounting screws in.
14. Put armature back on - replaced brushes, restore motor assembly
15. Put remaining pieces back. Replaced power cord. Plastic grommets on original power cord would not fit since new cord was more thicker. Drilled out hole on switch assemble to accept the thicker cord with wider grommet placement. Clean up and oil all the remaining moving parts on Table saw.
16. Fire up the saw - it was music to my ears.

The repair was difficult but your website was a breeze to use . Wish there was a video on how to repair my model of table saw. Would have saved me some time and !#$!%^!! but at least I found the answers and parts needed.

Thanks eReplacement parts!

Removed the brush covers with a screwdriver, removed the old worn brushes. Installed the new brushes, then screwed the new brush covers back on. Easy fix.
