(ET) Loose magnets



I haven't done these motors specifically but I've done this type of repair. Use JB Weld (you can get it at most auto parts stores). JB Quick Weld will probably too work but be aware that it doesn't have as high a temp range. Carefully rough up the back of the magnet with a grinder to give the adhesive a good surface to adhere to, also make sure it's clean. Put the magnet in place and stuff newspaper into the casing to hold it until it cures (24 hours).

I have one motor that worked fine until one of the magnets came loose.
Has anyone figured out a method to re-install or re-glue the magnet into
the motor shell? Kind of adhesive, method of positioning the magnet etc?


A very long time ago, I re glued one or 2.   I probably used epoxy.  Use
wood blocks & shims to press them into place.
