Sorry, Don't Have a Diagram
But I can help you with the oiling procedure. You should have two oil ports, one in front just behind the fan case and one in the back. They will either have a plastic or metal cap on them, and the metal cap will be threaded and have a slot for a screwdriver. Remove these caps and put 6 drops of oil in each port once a year. The oil I recommend is 3-In-1 ELECTRIC MOTOR OIL, which is a special oil that 3-in-1 makes specifically for electric motors. It is in a red, white, and blue bottle. DO NOT USE regular 3-in-1 oil, as it is too thin. The special electric motor oil might be hard to find, although Lowe's had plenty the last time I needed it. If you can't find it, use your favorite brand of SAE 30 automotive motor oil. Hope this helps,

Thank you for the responses!
Bikerray, the vacuum I have is a Packard but it is a model 1941. Hygiene903, thank you for the oiling tips as they will come in handy. MadMan, yes I know that it is just a switch and a motor but not every motor is built the same. KirbyClassicIII, thank you for the videos as they will also come in handy when disassembling the motor.
