Top quality part!
Quality part. Excellent fit and finish. Connecting the 1 hot wire was a tad difficult, not just 'plug and play'. Not for amateurs, however disassembly-install-reassembly in under an hour!

Sorry, we couldn't find any existing installation instruction that matched.
The motor had burned out in my Ridgid shop vacuum after 12+ years of intense usage.
Use a phillips screw driver or power drill with phillips bit to remove all the motor cover screws. Once the cover is off, take a few minutes to examine the wiring inside the cover. The replacement motor has to attach to the power lead from the on/off switch and to the ground wire. It\'s pretty basic electrical circuitry. Unclip the leads
... Read morefrom the old motor using needle-nose pliers. The leads have clips that slide off the metal tabs. Remove the old motor, then be sure to clean out the bottom cover [mine had sawdust residue and other grime]. Position the new motor in the same spot, put the motor screws back in and connect the electrical leads.
Before replacing the motor cover, make sure the on/off switch is seated property in the handle and that the incoming electrical cord is seated in its special notch on the base cover. Put the motor cover on and replace the screws, making sure to press the two halves of the cover together as you go (this is part of your dust protection). If the halves of the cover don\'t mate snugly, then take off the top cover and make sure there\'s nothing impeding the reassembly.
My replacement motor fired up instantly when I plugged it in and I am a happy camper. Thanks, eReplacementparts. Ya done good.
