Van,
The hole in the spindle is there due to the way the shaft is manufactured. It is ground on centers to ensure concentricity. That is one of the reasons it is such a fine product. If you damaged one of the windings, the armature should be checked on a special piece of equipment called a growler. If the windings are damaged the armature will have to be rewound. I assume from your last post you are not in the U.S.A. Every country on earth uses small electric motors so there should be a repair shop located within reach. If not, a repair shop can be located out of your area and the motor can be shipped to the facility and shipped back to you once the repair is completed.
