Einleitung

If bearings are worn or if fan is damaged, the replacement of the entire bearing assembly is required. After opening the case, the bearing assembly can be lifted out by hand.

    • Start by removing the housing cap by unscrewing it.

    • Next, unscrew the now exposed collet nut while holding down the shaft lock button.

    • To remove the collet nut, you may need to use the small open-end wrench provided with the Dremel.

    Is this a joke??? Wanna maybe possibly tell US WHAT A COLLET NUT LOOKS LIKE?? I mean it's obviously very exposed (not exposed one bit. My Dremel 4000 looks exactly like it did before. No Collet nut suddenly stood out) and not all of us have advanced degrees in Dremel parts

    • Using your hands, carefully remove hanger from casing.

    Mine seems to have solid caps without the slot. How are this type removed?

    This is getting worse. Maybe skipping the Collet Nut part threw me off - as there is no hanger. This description is PATHETIC!!!

    • Using your fingers, carefully pull the circuit board from the casing. This will make it easier to remove the power cord.

    • Each wire is fed through a small opening on the circuit board and held with a flat head screw.

    • Loosen the screw just enough to remove the wire by gently pulling it with your hand.

    • Carefully pull up on the shaft to lift out of the casing.

    The blue wire has a seat below the brushing casing of the Dremel bottom assembly (you can see a little notch). Thus place the blue wire before putting back the stator…

Nice guide. FYI, I've found that removing the rotor/bearing assembly is just as easy without removing the input power wires.

Chris Barth -

Absolutely, it is.
