Replacing Kapex armature video

[Doug S]

Not sure if we are allowed to post videos of people tinkering with their Festools so mods please remove if it breaks the rules.

Just saw it and thought people might find it helpful if trying a diy fix on their Kapex.

Thanks for sharing the link.

Someone has put out a tutorial but I never have the confidence to rely on it if my EB motor burns out. This video is a game changer if I do need to fix a motor. Admittedly, I don't expect mine (2015) to go out anytime soon due to usage. 17 years of usage by a tradesperson before it broke down would mean 25 years of life or more for someone like me.

Fascinating video! Quite impressive the owner used it so much he completely wore the armature out like that!
