If anyone could provide some advice I would appreciate it very much.
I was given a Black and Decker electric mower. Model LM100 or possibly LM106, hard to tell. When I try to run it it trips the breaker every time. I took the cover off and checked the brushes. They are about 5/8th of an inch long. When trying it with the cover off there is a lot of sparking between each of the brushes and the armature? before it trips the breaker. It sure looks like too much sparking to me, almost like a dying out child?s sparkler. It will run for 2 or 3 seconds before the breaker trips.
Any thought as to how I can repair it? Or any sites that I can be pointed to that will help?
Thanks again, John
