Installation notes
Disconnect power to the tool. Remove the brush holder caps or covers and slide out the worn brushes. Compare them to the new ones to confirm the dimensions match. Insert the replacements with the lead wires routed correctly, reinstall the caps, and test-run the tool at low speed for a minute to allow the brush faces to conform to the commutator.
Common questions
Q: Will the 614367-00 carbon brush fit my DeWALT DWS780 miter saw, and do I need to replace both brushes at the same time?
Yes, the 614367-00 carbon brush is used on the DeWALT DWS780 and also fits other listed models like the DWS779, DWS709, DW713, DW715, DW716, and D24000 series. It’s best practice to replace both motor brushes at the same time so the motor wears evenly and maintains proper contact with the commutator.
Q: How do I know if the carbon brushes on my DW716 or D24000 tile saw need to be replaced?
Common signs include loss of power, excessive sparking, intermittent operation, or the motor cutting out during use. If you remove the brushes and they look very short, chipped, or unevenly worn, it’s time to install new 614367-00 brushes and inspect the brush holders for dust buildup.
Q: After installing the 614367-00 brush in my DWS779, do I need to do anything before using the saw normally?
After installation, run the saw unloaded for a few minutes so the new brushes can seat properly against the armature. While you’re replacing them, clean out any carbon dust from the brush area and make sure each brush moves freely in its holder before reinstalling the caps.
