Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Compatibility:
Before installation, verify that your vacuum motor is a 7.2" Ametek Lamb model operating on 220–240V and features a 28-bar, 1.125" commutator. These carbon brushes (833415-55) are specifically designed for this configuration.
Setup & Installation:
- Safety First: Ensure the vacuum cleaner is unplugged from the power source.
- Access Motor: Disassemble the vacuum cleaner housing to access the motor and its brush holders.
- Remove Old Brushes: Carefully remove the old carbon brushes from their holders. Note their orientation.
- Install New Brushes: Insert the new Reliapart carbon brushes into the holders, ensuring they are correctly oriented to make proper contact with the commutator.
- Reassemble: Reassemble the vacuum cleaner housing.
- Test: Plug in the vacuum and test its operation.
Care:
Carbon brushes are a wear item. Regular inspection is recommended, especially if you notice performance degradation. While the brushes themselves do not require cleaning, ensure the commutator surface they contact is clean and free from debris. Replace brushes when they are visibly worn down to approximately half their original thickness or show signs of damage.
