Hi Jenya, The commutator, the part the brushes contact, needs to be turned to extend the brush life. Also, excessive clearance between shaft and bushing will contribute to shortening the brush life. Take it to a reputable local electric motor shop and have the armature turned and replace the bushing on the same end along with replacing the brushes. This in addition to making sure the engine is in good tune will enable the starter to live for many years.
