Functions and Replacement Needs:
Protects brushes and the motor: Prevents carbon brushes from shifting due to vibration and reduces contamination of internal motor components by wear-generated dust.
Replacement is required when the original holder is cracked, deformed, or has broken springs—issues that cause poor brush contact. Symptoms include reduced drill power, abnormal motor noise, or excessive sparking. Replacing with the corresponding part restores tool performance.
In summary, this is a dedicated carbon brush holder accessory for DeWalt DCD735 and other series cordless drills, playing a crucial role in ensuring stable motor operation and extending the tool’s service life.
