I can’t get the fan compartment off of the vacuum. It looks like there are two hidden screws at the bottom of it when I look inside the vacuum. How do you get those additional screws off so I can remove the compartment?
I agree with the @Krissy Owens. I made it as far as Step 5, however, there is no way to remove the ‘fan compartment’ using the method described and illustrated above. I have given up for now until I have time to explore on my own.
There are actually 4 screws on the fan compartment, as shown by the 4 screw holes on the compartment visible in the second photo of step 7. These two extra screws are located behind the handle, and require quite a bit more work. Remove the 4 screws underneath the top dust filter and cap, then remove the hidden screw under the power button by sliding the power button to on, and then removing the small clip underneath followed by the screw below. This will allow you to access the top of the dust cup, where there are 6 more screws to be removed before you can lift the handle. Finally once you can lift the handle, you can access the two remaining screws on the fan compartment.
Holy $@$*. So I just managed to get the fan out and yea basically follow the above comments and every screw you see. Remove it. I wish I could provide pics to show all of them but there literally every where and I’m pretty sure the only reason I managed to pull this off was because my bf has a kobalt tool kit that comes with everything. So don’t attempt this if you don’t have a variety of tools because I was having to use precision flatheads on some due to the screws not being shaped perfectly.
I was intended to clean the motor contacts, this is the most relevant info I can find. However, as the first 2 posts mentioned, there is no way to open it only by following the info in the original doc.
I managed to open the motor by following what Michael said. The steps in the original doc is not even half way.
There are 4 screws in total to hold the motor/fan part. To reach the bottom 2, there are about 10 additional screws to remove, 2 of them are hidden, 1 under the switch(you need to pry off a cover piece), the other a foam sticker and need to peel that foam first. I took some photos but don’t know how can I post them.
Tool wise, they are not Philips, they are T10 and T15, and with a center hole in them, plus, there are certain screws(2) are deep in holes and you have to have a thin extension stick to reach. == > Don’t bother if you don’t have them.
I was trying to fix the motor that sparks too much, however can get rotor part out of the housing, the fix wasn’t a success. Anyways,
