Default Re: 6 volt Generator brushes squeal like a pig!

Brushes can make some noise until they take a set to the commutator. It's possible what you are hearing is the commutator segments rotating across the brushes. Once the face of the brushes conform to the commutator they should quit down. Don't put any type of grease on them.
