We are like minded in seeking to keep old stuff going

Thanks for this excellent job. I have the WFF1300 which is nearly the same design. I am busy replacing the bearings and your video is very helpful. Total cost for the bearings and the rubber seal purchased from the local store : 28€. I tried to just take out the orange bracket without opening the front side, but it was not possible. The axis was sealed to the bearings. So I opened the tank and I extracted the drum and his axis by hitting the axis from behind with a wooden hammer.

Ich liebe diese Bosch Geräte!

You could in theory paint strip the panels and treat rust patches kurust by hammerite or lightly wet sand polish it away then treat with kurust as it's an inhibitor to any corrosion then once dry 2 coats of hammerite special metals primer and finally some appliance enamel paint or I'd use spray on radiator enamel 2-4 coats as 8t can withstand direct prolonged contact with a heat source like rads Def a big job stripping washer nicely done 👍👍

There’s two bearings in the motor, they’re the ones that are singing

I've got exactly the same Makita battery drill, they last forever!

7601, which makes this a almost 26 year old machine. Built like a tank though, these Bosches are very well made machines, second to a Miele from this era.

Why are the brushes angled, do you know?

Was für eine Qualitätseinstellung die du beim I-Phone hast? 60 FPS? Greetings fromn Austria Styria

Owen, I was thinking along the lines of another comment, was there a reason to not just remove the cast bearing block and so change the bearings? Obviously take the front off to change the door seal. Remarkably clean machine, your water must be quite soft, cheers

That looks like quite an old machine, I'd say pre-2000?
-
You've overcomplicated it! In these machines that have a steel outer tub, you can just take out the orange cast-iron bracket at the back of the tub and replace the bearings without taking the whole machine apart!

Hello, Where can I find a brand new motor (not a refurbished) for my lovely WFM3000/01? 😢
-
There is no need to take the entire thing apart! All you need to do is remove the red Triangle iron part in the back and you should be golden!

Just buy a new one
