Sorry for the delay in reply- I didn't see this pop up. There are three options, no four to repair this: 1) soak the brass nut in a lot of WD and hope like H3ll it will loosen up 2) Jam a flathead screwdriver in the spider, and try to remove the brass nut that way. A pair of vice grips on the back end of the motor shaft also work. 3) Remove the motor, remove carbons, remove top cooling fan, remove carbon housing and coil assembly. Grip the armature with a rag and try turning the brass nut off with a pair of vice grips. 4) Grind the brass nut off on a bench grinder being VERY careful not to damage the armature shaft (I do NOT recommend this one unless you know what you are doing!!!!) | ||
