Thanks! I will look for a tool to make the notch to try to do this.

Hello! Beautiful work! how did you invert the shaft of that motor? is it necessary to do some adaptation or is it only to remove and to put inverted?

Not too hard to reverse the shaft. I removed the c-clip and the brass washer, then separated the can from the stator. Then I unscrewed the set screw and pressed the shaft into the correct position with a c-clamp and a block of wood with a hole drilled in it for the shaft to press though. Once I had the shaft in the right spot, I put the can with the shaft in it in a sock with the shaft poking through the center of the sock. This is to prevent any metal shards from getting sucked into the motor..

... when the notch is cut for the c-clip on the other side. I guess you could press the shaft all the way through and reverse. Make sure to use thread lock on the set screw when you tighten.
