I pulled the motor on my Electrolux Model L and disassembled much of the motor itself. I discovered what I think is a sleeve bearing on the fan end. However, what kind of bearing is there on the commutator end and how do I access it? Do I pull the motor field in order to get to that bearing? It seems to be sealed in something. Thanks!

The bushing on the commutator end is easy to service. I just use 3 in 1 oil (blue bottle, not red) and fill the hole up, then it will soak into the felt wicking which is enclosed and you are good to go! |
