I have read the solutition that has been presented about brushes getting too hot and sticking. one skides out easy and the oppisit side is frozen and does not come out. with it's hard to get a tool in and try prying it out without damaging the holder, how do i get the stuck brush out of the plastick holder please ans ed
You have to split the case and remove the entire switch/brush holder from the tool. You can use anything from picks to files to drill bits to get all of the stuck brush material out of the switch. Small files help clean up the holder area. Just be very careful not to damage or break the switch, they have been discontinued and are getting exceedingly hard to find on after-market parts sites. Depending on which version 395 you have, switches are available for a couple of them at www.ereplacementparts.com. The different versions have a number like F0130395XX, where the XX is different for each model variation.
