Step 13 Replacing the wash motor (G130):
(a) Remove the rear cover (Step 2).
(b) Insert a spacer under the right rear foot, then lean the machine forwards
slightly to obtain more working
space (Motor replacement only).
(c) To remove the drive belt (G170), insert a tool between the belt and the
pulley (G160), rotate the pulley and remove the belt.
(d) Disconnect the motor terminal board by pressing the two locking tabs
and then remove it.
Remove the motor earth screw and then disconnect the wiring.
NB: When refitting the motor, ensure that the earth screw is very
tight in order to avoid earth continuity problems.
(e) Use a 13 mm socket spanner and a 13 mm open-ended spanner
to remove the four* bolts (G380),
the four* locknuts (G410), the eight* washers (G390), the four*
spacers (G540) and the four bushes
(G400) (* in the case of a high speed washing machine).
On low speed washing machines there are three bolts, three nuts,
six washers and three spacers.
Version with 42 litre polypropylene tub: Use a pair of pliers to remove the two
split-pins (G001) and remove the
locking pins (G002). Recover the four bushes (G400).
For 39 cm and 47 litre washing machine versions: Use a 13 mm socket
spanner and a 13 mm open-ended spanner to remove the
two bolts (G380), the two fixing nuts (G410), the four washers
(G390), the two spacers (G540), the two bushes (G400) and
the two bushes (G067).
For 33 cm washing machine versions: Use an 8 mm spanner to slacken
the hexagonal head fixing screws (G004) securing the tub
back plate (only those highlighted in the figure). Then use
a 13 mm socket spanner and a 13 mm open-ended spanner
to remove the two bolts (G380), the two fixing nuts (G410),
the four washers (G390), the two spacers (G540), the two
bushes (G400) and the two bushes (G067).
(f) To re-assemble: Follow the same procedure in reverse order, preferably replacing the two motor bolts
(right side) first, followed by the others. It is advisable top replace the nuts (G410) with new ones
in order to be certain of their self-locking characteristics. Otherwise, use the old nuts and apply a
suitable locking compound.
