So my 3y old Miele vac choked after someone tried to use it to suck hair out of a shower.
I know, right!
What happened was, one of the bearings on the motor drive shaft exploded, I think maybe water got in through the seals. I was about to buy a new machine because replacement motors for these are ££££. Then I realised I could buy a small bearing puller and replace the bearing, and that would be both satisfying, fun, and cheap!
I can see that the other, identical, bearing on the shaft is a CW 608 LVH. 608's are commonplace, but there are various seal and shield options. Furthermore, A couple of washers? shims? are present. The smaller one might have been part of the bearing, the larger was in the motor case where the bearing is seated.
Looking at the attached photos, can anyone advise me exactly what I need?
Many thanks!
