My Makita Beltsander 9404 is making a lot of noise at low speed, settings 1 and 2. I believe it is the ball bearing attached to the fan assembly. I have dismantled the sander but cannot get the armature from the sander body. How can I remove or undo the nut 25 (makita line drawing) to get access to the armature and remove the bearing pls
