Hi,

I am trying to change the Hydraulic and steer motor brushes. It seems they are really awkward to do. Is there a certain way you have to do these? as the steer motor brushes are really hard to removed as they are connected via wires and very hard to get out the motor. And also the hydraulic brushes 3 are easy in situ but the last one is right next the counterweight and even when removing the nuts from the bracket it seems near on impossible to get to the last one. The pump hoses are very very tight and was hoping that i do not have to try and remove these as there will be quite a lot of oil leakage.

Fact of the week
The word "robotics" was coined by Russian-born American science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov who first used the word in 1942 in his short story 'Runabout'. He characterised robots as helpful servants and as "a better, cleaner race."
