I took my FLEX 3401 in to get the power cord replaced and the bearings greased around the holidays. Took it to a place here in Sacramento called "Cut-It". I had used it for two years and never done anything to it other than pulling that casing apart and blowing all the dust and debris out from polishing.
They guy said that was a ton of stuff wrapped around the stator (I think that's what it's called) inside and he showed it to me. Turns out it was from my PFW's. They cleaned the outside as well and made it look and work like brand new!!
The whole thing cost me $90. If you have been thinking about taking yours in I would do it cuz it made a world of difference in mine!!
