Repairing a Makita GA9040S grinder that sounds bad.

The top armature bearing on this makita ga9040s grinder has totaly failed and has fallen apart.
Shows how well built this makita grinder are made to be able to withstand this kind of abuse.
Its very important to wash out the gear head as pieced of the bearing will have worked thier way into the gears, as this one did.
This is not an expensive repair at 60 euro, compared to 200 for a new machine.

I think you've said before, but it looks like a bosch grease? I have a number of black and deckers from the 40s and 50s that I need to do, grease was the only thing stopping me.
