Kind regards,

You're very welcome!

The only issue is that my bottom of my machine is very different.

But the motor is the exact same

There were two screws added sometime in its life to hold it up, without these screws the motor board is only held in by the long speed control shaft

There seems to be something weird going on, that is why I'm trying to find one just like my example.


Edit: there are nail holes underneath the motor board, but no nail holes on the board itself

Some pictures of the bottom of the case and my motor

It appears that there should be 4 screws to fasten the motor board to the cabinet, although the screw holes seem to be wallowed out quite a bit. There has also been some poor gluing done on the cabinet. I would say that everything looks legit, albeit somewhat suffering from some wear & tear.

Thats what I thought, thank you!
