Flex 3401 died :(
Bad news. My 3401 died on me yesterday mid detail.
So I have owned this machine for about 10 years or so. I would say I have averaged about 20 hours a week on it since I got it. That’s a lot of hours on one money making machine and it owes me nothing. The only thing I have done to the machine is replace maybe 5 backing plates since the hook part (of the hook and loop) is a wear item and is expected to wear out after time and use.
Now the good news....... I replaced the brushes(that I had sitting as spare for 6 or so years), cleaned up the internals and.....BANG. BACK TO WORKING LIKE NEW!!!!!!
Flex builds solid machines and mine has been used and abused. For anyone considering a Flex, let this be testimony of how durable they are.
