Easy as pie



Tool tip of the day......


Brush Change.

Being the most common sheetrock gun on the market, the Dewalt DW272 is the base for most sheetrock guns (grabber). The most common repair on these drills is the brushes (carbons).

There are a few simple steps to replacing them.

First, take a #20 star head screwdriver and remove the screws.









Second, remove back cover.








Third, gently lift spring out of the way.








Fourth, Tip drill and let old brush fall out.









Fifth, replace with new brush grove side up.











Sixth, gently replace spring.





Repeat steps 2-6 on other side.




Seventh, snap cover back in place and replace screws.



If drill continues to act up take to an authorized service center
