Motor Question

[acorn28]

I've noticed that the motor shaft on my LRP Vector X12 has some play and can be moved back and forward in the can. Is this normal? I've not noticed this on my other motor (same model). Has something come loose inside? Any assistance much appreciated.

Normally a little movement is natural, if you have never taken it apart then I doubt any of the shims on the rotor will have been lost ( they cant fall off, when its together ) :) you could try checking the 3 outer screws on the back of the endbell that hold the case together, but i doubt they will come slack and you would probs notice cos the outer of the can would move

Cheers mate, all seems in place and its never been taken apart, so I guess all normal. Thanks for your help.
