Motor

[Brad K]

My Bosch 4000 motor just bit the dust the saw is 2 1/2 years old and looks brand new. I hardly ever use it. I checked the switch and the brushes all is fine, but it was making a loud noise just before it started to run at half speed. I then shut it off but it never turned back on. Where do I get a new motor?

Hi Brad,

Sorry to hear about your saw. The motor is not sold as an assembly but you can get the parts you need to repair it. You will want to take the motor apart and verify what part(s) failed. My guess is that you will need a new Armature, part #2610996866, and the field, part #2610996867. You will also want to replace the armature bearings, part #2610911927 and #2610911928, and the motor brushes, part# 2610997207. Check the motor housings for any melted plastic. If you find melted pieces they will need to be replaced as well.

I hope this helps with your repair!
