Why do you need to remove it. If you are changing the brushes it can be done in situ.

thanks for reply.

already changed brushes but it keep on tripping our RCB and now I guess the motor needs replacing, I also smell buring plastic near motor.

thanks

You can unplug motor and see if it trips. It you want to remove it remove the bolt at the back of the drum. Then slip belt off then swing motor up , then remove 2 lower 13 mm bolts.
