[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1010387, member: 178786"] Im back, after the hammer job :-lol It worked, I have the armature sleeve free from the cog casing to get a better look at things. The brushes have approximately 6mm left on them before the start of the small hole used to connect the wire to the brush. From the feedback provided by "Terryl" above, it seems that 6mm on each brush is OK and they do not need replacing. I noticed there seems to be some white crystalline deposit, both in the cog head and the armature sleeve, possibly salt? As I do not know the provenance of the actuator I dont know if it was on an installation near to the coast. I will clean it all up and then have a go at getting it back together. Edit: I just noticed there seems to be a hardened glue residue in the armature sleeve where the two semi circular magnets were. Do I need to reglue the magnets in place or can I clean off the hardened glue residue and place the armature and magnets back in the sleeve without glue? Rgds [/QUOTE]
