POLISHER SERVICE KIT ARMATURE (25) FOR POL05

Features

• Genuine Tork Craft replacement armature for the POL05 polisher.
• Correct winding specification and core dimensions for the original POL05 motor.
• Precision-machined commutator ready to run with genuine POL05 carbon brushes.
• Accurately balanced rotor to minimise vibration at polishing speeds.
• Finished shaft profiles to suit the POL05 bearings and gearbox components.
• Supplied under the POL05-SK06 spare part reference (item 25 on the parts diagram).

Benefits

• Restores lost power and smoother running to a tired or damaged POL05.
• Reduces excessive sparking, overheating and nuisance tripping from a failing armature.
• Protects bearings, brushes and electronics by returning the motor to correct specification.
• Extends the working life of the tool instead of replacing the complete machine.
• Gives operators a more confident feel on paint, gelcoat and metal surfaces.

Extra Information

Typical signs that an armature needs replacement include a strong burning smell, visible discolouration or cracked windings, heavy sparking at the brushes, tripping of power protection or a motor that hums but will not spin even with good brushes and cable. In these cases, fitting a new POL05-SK06 armature is often the only reliable long-term fix.

Whenever the armature is changed, it is good practice to inspect the stator, bearings, brushes and commutator area at the same time. Combining a fresh armature with healthy support components and genuine Tork Craft spares gives the POL05 the best chance of many more hours of smooth, dependable work in a busy workshop.

Pro Tip

Pro Tip: Before removing the old armature, take clear photos of the brush gear, wiring and bearing arrangement. When fitting the new POL05-SK06 armature, make sure the bearings are properly seated, the commutator is clean and the brushes slide freely in their holders. After reassembly, run the polisher at low speed with no load for a few minutes to bed the brushes onto the new commutator before returning the tool to full-duty polishing work.

Specifications

Safety

• Always unplug the polisher from the mains before opening the housing or working on the motor.
• Allow the tool to cool down fully before handling the armature and nearby components.
• Use suitable tools and support the correct areas when removing and fitting bearings on the armature shaft.
• Ensure all wiring is reconnected correctly and routed away from moving parts before reassembly.
• Refit all covers, guards and screws securely and test the polisher under no load before returning it to normal use.
• If you are unsure about electrical or mechanical repairs, have the work carried out by a qualified technician or an approved service centre.
