Thank you. I've had my Skilsaw for 35 years and im finally giving it a big tune up

When not working after replacing brushes:
The cavity the brushes slide into is sometimes just small enough to keep the brushes from sliding through the end and touching the armiture. Sand all 4 edges of the brush just enough so it can pass the end of the cavity and make contact.
If you can spin your blade with no resistance, they are probably not making contact.

Wat if the plunger is not working how do you pull off the blade off your skilsaw
