The equivalent of a ¼” bead of compound should be applied perpendicular to the rollers onto the slip
ring once applied run the machine without any film on it for about 10 minutes. If the temperature does
not stop to fluctuate, inspect the brushes.
Brushes
Power brushes only need to be replaced when damaged; it is very unusual for these to wear out
Temperature sensor brushes periodically need to be replaced.
These brushes are made of a copper alloy and will wear with time. If the rubbing pad dries out and no
longer provides a lubricant to the brushes, wear will be greatly accelerated.
The brushes are manufactured with a radial point ground on each end of the brush.
Wear may be identified by the amount that this tip has worn off. The brush may be removed and turned
around to use the point on the other end just as long as there is still enough taper on the old end so that
the spring can keep the brush centered.
If replacement brushes are needed these may be purchased through your dealer or through us directly
Rtd brush, note taper on each end (magnified view brushes are only 1/8 diameter)

When the brushes are inspected, take note of the condition of the slip ring and that it has not been
grooved to badly. If it is seriously grooved and gulled, it should either be polished with scotch brite or
replaced. If after replacing the brushes, the condition continues, see temperature fluctuation in
troubleshooting.
