Had a go at repairing the T140V's Stator.
The insulation had broken through on the wiring exposing the copper at a point close to where it enters the moulding material.
I needed to dremel the material around this point, far enough in to get a purchase of intact insulation both sides of the repair area.
The electrical cable is now repaired using layers of shrink wrap insulation.
An attempt was made to fill the resulting crater left in the moulding but this dropped out when it dried.
I thought, far better to leave it as is than fill it with material which could break away and scatter into the primary case area when operating the machine.
Is it essential to fill the moulding or it it OK as is?
Cheers.
