How do you securely put the screws back in after they come out.The other half just spins when I try to unscrew and screw the screws so i get no where

I used a very small allen wrench and used a lot of pressure. I didn't have a correct tool. I just tried my best to keep the opposite end still to tighten the screws. Ultimately one of the screws got lost, and I ended up replacing it with a small bolt and screwed a nut on and added epoxy glue.

You could try holding the other side down with you finger(the side with out the screw indent) while you screw it in with your other hand. Other than that you might have busted the screw

Pick up some locktite. Its super glue essentially. Pick it up from a place like Lowes. You want the one with the red cap.

Ah... :)You take a screwdriver that fits the screw and unscrew it as you would usually do (anti-clockwise).After a couple of turns it seems like the screw no longer holds the cover (the lid got a bit separated from the body), but it still won't come off, does it? :)Well, at this point you need to insert something thin (your fingernail?) in the crack between the cover and the body and just pull.Try pulling not from the center, but a bit closer to one of the edges - the cover latches to the body near the edges...

I would recommend having someone to assist you. There are some parts that needs a second pair of hands to keep them in place while you are inserting screws

I took a dremel and a small sanding disk to cut a slot in the screws to use a flat head screwdriver. If you do it, lower the disk straight in, and don't run it back and forth or wobble it. (My first slot was a little big and ugly. The others look pretty nice.)

Mine was half in, half out, as well - on each of the 4 that I bought. So I removed each battery cover and had to both unscrew one end and push from the other end to get each screw out. Now, I dont bother with the screws, since they arent necessary to keep the cover on.

LOL, that got me too! Actually it just screws on, but it is reverse screw (counter clockwise). Google the model and see the instructions because it is tricky to get the old one off and the new one on. I tried several times, but finally succeeded. Good luck.

Haha. It can be a little tough... Remove the outter rubber cover.. Take a butter knife or screw driver and youll see two random spaces while looking at the sides.... Put the screw drive in and twist at it begin to come aprt about halfway.. You have to be a little more creative and use a similar technique getting the second half opened. Best of luck

I don't have mine open now, but recall that the secret was to remove more screws and wires, which I think allowed separating the desired section. I initially tried what looked like the easy way with just a few screws, but the opening was not large enough to take it out that way, because protruding parts prevented mine from sliding out. If that's not clear enough, I can open mine again to refresh my memory.

You have to take out the screw and pull it apart. You will also find your blades once you take it apart.

I've had a similar problem. The only thing I've done is squeze the handles together above and below the pivot with a screwdriver. This has worked for me - I hope this helps. Best Regards - Philip

They provide a tool that is used to screw it underneath The screw is already in. You just unscrew it to lock it in.

Did you remove all the screws that remove the wheels also? There are rubber grometts that hold the brush rotator in place and seems that you may have to pry on it gently to seperate the 2 halfs. I have never taken mine apart yey but that seems to me how it would be done . Good Luck let me know how it comes out .

It just detaches pretty easily after entirely removing the screw. Give it a few tries in and out and it should come out in no time.

If anything, I have difficulty removing them. Once they snap/click into place, they're in there really tightly. Make sure you push them in well. When I first got mine I thought I had them in all the way, but didn't, and they fell out. You'll feel them click into place.

You just have to be gentle with it. I think I had mine get stuck a bit. Make sure it's closing the right way. Might be your best bet is to squeeze both ends of one side where it rotates. Just be careful not to break it. :)

I have the standard screw on from the bottom handle which comes apart and you lay the blade on the 3 pegs and screw handle back together and they work fine ,hope that helps.

I had this problem in the beginning when i first got mine. All of the parts twist and the black thing inside... sorry i don't know what it is called but that could be a little difficult to get out it took me a little bit the first couple of times. Try twisting until it fully comes off. I think you twist to the right to get the parts off and to the left to lock them but not 100%.
