Clean up the carbon deposit of ALSGS table feed (power feed) regularly

How does the carbon deposit in the table feed (power feed) of ALSGS table feed come into being?

Due to the friction between the motor rotor and the carbon brush during the operation of the table feed, the carbon brush is worn.

The worn carbon brush will produce carbon powder. Because the table feed (power feed) is a closed structure, the carbon powder cannot be discharged by itself.

There is a risk of short circuit if the carbon powder is accumulated too much. The only way to solve this problem is to clean up the carbon deposit regularly.

(1) The position indicated by the arrow on the left is the fixed screw hole of the feeder (tool feeder). There are four such screw holes on the fuselage, and their positions are symmetrically distributed.

(2) The position indicated by the arrow on the right is the carbon brush holder, which is easy to accumulate carbon. There are two such positions in the fuselage.
 

To clean up the carbon deposit, first remove the table feed, loosen the four fixing screws and remove the upper cover of the table feed (power feed).

Then use the high-pressure air gun to clean the carbon deposition position of the table feed (power feed).

Under normal circumstances, the carbon deposit should be cleaned every three months, and the machine with low frequency of use can be extended to clean every six months.
