commutator resurfacing...

after a while of using your power tool, the commutator might need a little resurfacing to bring it back to it's best original performance.

now that power tools are coming out with out canned motors, it is way easier to maintain the commutator/motor.

so here are the basics of how a commutator should look and not look...

just apply slight pressure with the filler while turning by hand.

the same process can be similar to the other power tools...

just sharing.
