Got balancing the motor, won't affect operation

Yup. Most motors are balanced by removing material from there. Some have brass weights on the ends for cutting bits out of for balancing.

The brushes (if it has any) don't touch where the cuts are.

Brushes don't ever touch magnetic laminations.

Odd how many people on here know what they are talking about, as you do, without appearing to know the most basic things.

It's been a while since I've had anything motorized apart, so I forgot there's another doohickey on the end, and I haven't run anything long enough to wear out brushes.

Both correct.
