Good Question but I can not give an answer. My Mark V is only eighteen years old so I have had no reason to look. However, I'll be watching for the answer.

Having said that - are ALL 1 1/8 hp Emerson Mark V motors built the same? I would be a bit skeptical.:confused:

They are probably double shielded bearings. This would be an easy repair for an electric motor repair shop.
