Aveox motor bearings

[walter geens]

Hi guys,

I've just gotten a Aveox 1050/2Y motor but i noticed that the front bearing is worn out. Can someone tell me if it is difficult to replace it? I mean how to open the motor and replacing the front bearing.
Thanks a bunch,
Walter

The endbells are just ca'ed on.Tap the shaft down on a wooden table to get the endbell off. The bearings sometimes are glued in as well with loctite but not a big deal to push them out.When putting the motor back together be sure to use a little thin ca on the endbell to hold it back together.

Thanks Mark,

Will try that tonight when i come home from work. I wasn't sure, but so they are "sealed" like most motors then.
Thanks for clearing that out.
Walter
