Changing the bearrings on a Miele W 8115, part 1/2

This is the first part of my restauration vid. The bearring on this Miele were broken.

Unfortunately, I had a lot of pictures and only few vids.

Special thanks to the repairman, who helped me a bit. Without him the old bearrings would have never come out *lol*


Enjoy ;)

Yeah, carbon from brushes really does influence on inner surface and machine functionality and has to be removed )))) Anyway good job, this device was manufactured to work for ages.Lucky to remove rusty bearings safely, without leaving of outer bearing race in the insert

@integrin1978 Hehe... Well, carbon dust can affect circuit boards and such, so the fewer carbon dust, the better ;-)

great job!!!

how did you remove bearings?

i have your same problem and very similar washing machine...and I want to repair it by myself.

how much the bearings costs? are they universal or only Miele original bearings fits?

[Wiljannn]

@MatteoGeromin Thanks!

I brought the tub to a technician, who removed the bearings with a special 'bearing puller'. ;)

The bearings are universal, but the Seal between drum and bearings is not universal.

hoezo ik haal veel te veel los :D hehehe...

@The1970Mach1 Achwat, zo lang je het lagerkruis maar bereikt en de machine weer in elkaar krijgt *lol* Kijk maar eens bij de reparatievideo van de W 720 - daar heb ik echt álles uit elkaar gehaald ;-)

Klopt, de loopring was nog wel in orde. En dat blijkt: we zijn nu bijna 2 jaar verder en de lagers zijn nog net zo stil als na het wisselen *afkloppen*

you should have cleaned also the inner tub :) nice video

[integrin1978]

@integrin1978 Theoretically carbon can cause electrical breakdown, but only in case of heavy deposit, which cover open board, but it is obviously in casing and protected safely from dust

wtf bij 2:37, Zo zien de lagers van mijn WT745 ook er uit, verroest en er zit bij mij een gat in omdat ik met een bijtel de lagers er uitgeslagen heb.

Nah.. You can change the sleeve, but it's not necessary.

It's been almost 2 years and the bearrings still sound like new ;)

But, the shaft wasn't damaged, so I left it the way it was ;)
