How to Inspect and Change Brushes on DeWalt 611

[@nateswartz7851]

Just did my first ever change of brushes on a tool. Typed my query into the search and was SO excited that a video of yours popped up first! I already subscribe to you for your Easel and sign making tips and tricks and all of your videos are layed out great and very helpful! You are always a go-to channel for CNC work and even thinking about a Fox alien because of your reviews. Thank You for all the information, you are great!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m glad that my videos have helped you

Thanks for uploading this! Just had my router quit and was going to purchase a new one. I’ll have to investigate this first to see if it’s just this simple.

You're welcome. I did a live stream actually changing the brushes also

Very informative as always, preventive maintenance is the key to keeping your equipment running.

Mrc Outdoors. I couldn’t agree more. Thanks for the comment.

I have an idea for a project, how do I get a hold of you

Mrc Outdoors. What type of project do you have in mind?

[@mrcoutdoors9959]

Would you consider making me a couple of signs. I will pay . I know you can do them with the xcarve. 1 is a banner about 24" x 6" that says ( God blessed our broken roads ) 2 a heart about 24" that says our Love knows no bounds.

Now that's something I need to do, first job for tomorrow is to check my Brushes and second is to order some spares. I'm not sure how many hours mind has done since I built my X carve in April but I'm guessing it is quite a few. Thanks for the reminder.

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Cliff Phillips. I keep a log of every Carve I do with the time recorded. I know that my brushes last for about 150 to 160 hours. I could push that number further but it is not worth risking a failure. That allows for a safety factor.

[@DavidM2002]

The part number is A27343-4pk . Amazon and others carry these using that number. The number stamped on the brush is E105.

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Thank you. I also have a link in my affiliate link section in the description to purchase the brushes.

[@rega3160]

Thank you for a great video. I was wondering how to changes the brushes on the 611. Where can I buy replacements.

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Reg A. The brushes can be purchased fro amazon. www.amazon.com/Dewalt-DWP611-Porter-Replacement-A27343-4pk/dp/B00X1LF708/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1533783191&sr=8-3&keywords=dewalt+611+brushes

[@johncoleman76]

Do you run the router on level 1 speed for all of your carves?

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Yes, that is 16,000 RPM for setting one

[@johncoleman76]

@@PawPawsWorkShop Thank you, sometimes when I’m doing a roughing pass on let’s say a flag where it’s all straight lines I feel the need to speed it up to like 100 Ipm and felt like I should also run the router at a higher speed as well.

[@TheJayson1982]

Were do you buy your brushes.

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

jason weirich. Amazon. I’ll check to see if I have the part number.
