Motor Assembly N531561

I\'ve been repairing power tools since the 1970s. I use cardboard with holes poked in it to sort screws and take many clear pics to ensure wiring etc goes back correctly. An electric screwdriver etc will save much time and effort.
The steel pins and the plastic bosses which go through the tube in which the wires run must be out of ... Read more the way when you remove and replace the wire. I screwed the new motor down first since there\'s no need to leave it loose. I zip tie parts as necessary to keep them from dangling. The clear plastic Walmart tackle boxes make great hardware organizers.
The trick to power tool repair is parts organization and pics to ensure correct reassembly as line drawings are not all that great for the task.
Don\'t forget to reload the grease. Automobile wheel bearing or lithium grease will do.
You\'ll need a smallTorx set (I prefer bits) for this job.
