    Breaking Down A 5 Gal. Shop Vac

    I broke down a Shop Vac the other day so I thought I'd show how easy it is to remove the motor.

    This is the 5 gal vac.


    Flip the lid over and remove 4 Hex screws, 8mm


    Close-up of the cover.


    Separate the cover to reveal the motor.


    Plastic part unsnaps, fan underneath.


    Remove nut to remove fan.


    Under fan is motor dust cover, remove 2 Phillips screws.


    Open winding motor and power cord, that's all the goodies.
