Hello All - I have a Grizzly dust collector model G0440 that is starting to emit some high pitched squeaking noise on the wind down, bearings are probably the source of the noise. Has anyone out there ever replaced bearings on a dust collector this size? This thing is a beast, it just about killed me when I first installed it on the metal stand and stood it up inside my shop. I hate the idea of laying this thing down to work on it, I hope I can simply brace up the lower part of the machine and once braced off, pull the motor from the top.

Thoughts? Recommendations? Sell it? (kidding). Thanks.

JJ
