Gearmotor Tips from Bodine Electric: Type 33A or 42A DC Motor Brush Replacement

In this Gearmotor Tips video, we demonstrate how to inspect and replace the carbon brushes in a Bodine type 33A or 42A permanent magnet DC (PMDC) stock gearmotor or motor. Our stock 33A and 42A PMDC gearmotors and motors use a unique method of maintaining a constant force on the motor brushes. A roll-type spring
