    1. Repairing the grinder, Before assembly: step 6, image 1 of 1
      • Take a photo of the mark on the large gear wheel; it should be in the same position when you reassemble it.

      • Although the motor is powered by 230 V, diodes ensure that only positive half-waves are supplied, so that the motor only rotates in one direction. Make a note of how the connection cables are plugged in. Test later to see if it is rotating in the correct direction.

      • You can test the motor with approximately 25 V DC. It should turn easily and draw approximately 120 mA. If this is not the case, check the carbon brushes on the side. Only then should you consider replacing it.

      • Any brackets—in this case, the black rubber sleeve—must be transferred to the new part.

      • The speed sensor can only be removed from the inside. To do this, you must disconnect its plug from the main circuit board and expose the cables.

      • The machine's electronic use the sensor to measure the number of revolutions. The sensor must be transferred to the new motor.

      • The sensor is secured on the inside with a locking tab. It can therefore only be removed from the inside.

      • Press the locking tab firmly down with a flat screwdriver.

      • Slide the sensor out, using the flat screwdriver to help if needed.

      • Transfer the sensor to the new part.

      • Grease the worm gear on the new motor a little; the old grease may be sufficient, but new grease is better.

      • Check that the plastic bushing is seated properly in the center opening. Screw the motor tight.

If error 02 is reported, check the four 100Ohm "101" SMD-resistors. Seems to happen often that one goes open-circuit.
