anyone want a couple of fein III for free?

well of course they don't run.
I use them for my vac hold down and they have never sucked dust. but they are under heavy load since they have very little air flow through them. My first one died 2 weeks ago and my other died today. I have run my machine about 1100 hours and I did not use them all the time so maybe 600 hours or so runtime.
of course I was going to order a motor that is a drop in tomorrow. but I need a new vac tomorrow as I have been pretty busy. so there goes another 465 out of my budget plus another 170.00 for another motor.

Steve,
Are you ever in Eugene? I would take them off your hands but I think shipping might be a bit expensive for a 40 pound vacuum. You can email me direct instead of posting here - garyhair at comcast dot net

Thanks,
Gary

I bought a motor for one for 172.00 the other I sold for 100.00 though new brushes got it up and running but who knows for how long?
