I have a Eureka The Boss 7671 that has a problem. The motor is slowing down, and it's burning. If I have to replace the motor, it's okay, but can someone tell me how to get the motor off the bag assembly. If I can fix it easily, could you please give me a detailed way to take apart the motor. I have a trox screwdriver. Thanks, Nathaniel | ||

Yup, the cord is not the problem as these type vacs use a fixed plug & socket arrangement where the neck joins the motor casing (for easy motor swapping I imagine). As Dennis says, it is the dried caked smutz between the ridges of the internal rubber gasket seal around the motor fan outlet channel inside the handle portion that makes it seem stuck. No glues are involved, just friction fit. Wiggle, wiggle wiggle and out she comes. I too would remount the motor in the base for this so you can do it standing up. Or you could lie on the floor with your feet pressing both sides of the motor and lever/wiggle the motor casing off with your arms firmly gripping the handle/bag chamber. It will let loose quickly so best to have your feet and the motor against a pillow & wall and keep your chin/face out of the way of the handle. :-) Dave | ||

Got the case off. Here are the photos. Could a ton of dust on the motor make a difference?
