With extensive use, the brushes on the Model
T10043 may become worn and require replace-
ment.
To replace the brushes:
1. Tilt the sweeper all the way forward to allow
easy access to the brushes. For the sake of
simplicity, only replace one brush at a time.
2. Remove the lock nuts and hex bolts indicated
in Figure 26, and remove the old brushes.
It is not necessary to remove the bolts and
nuts connecting the brush holder to the brush
shaft.
2. Remove the retaining clip from the brush
shaft, then remove the spacers (Figure 24
).

the reverse order from disassembly.
5. Repeat for the other wheel.
3. Remove the ratchet gear, the spacers on
either side of the ratchet gear, and the ratchet
pin (Figure 25
).
