The Graco 220853 Brush Repair Kit is a genuine motor service kit designed to restore proper electrical contact inside compatible Graco electric airless paint sprayers. This kit replaces the discontinued part 108750 and is used when motor carbon brushes are worn, causing reduced performance or motor failure.
Product Function
The motor brushes are responsible for transferring electrical current to the rotating armature of the motor. Over time, these brushes naturally wear down. Replacing them with the correct repair kit helps:
- Restore smooth motor operation
- Prevent power loss and intermittent motor cut-off
- Extend overall motor service life
- Reduce the risk of motor damage
What’s Included in the Kit
| Component | Purpose |
| Carbon Brushes | Main electrical contact for motor commutator |
| Brush Springs | Maintain correct pressure on brushes |
| Brush Holders | Secure brushes in proper alignment |
Replacement Notes
- Always replace both motor brushes at the same time.
- Machine power must be fully disconnected before installation.
- Excessive sparking or weak motor output are common signs that brush replacement is needed.
- If the motor commutator is heavily damaged, brush replacement alone may not solve the issue.
