Router repair help ?

Sep 19, 2016 4 Replies

The slide on my Performance Power (B&Q) came loose and the footplate fell off so need to access to try and fix. I have loosened every screw I can find and I still cannot seperate the 2 halves of the body. The only other thing I can see that can be holding it together is the motor brushes, but they are difficult to access. Any ideas on how to get the brushes out.

Its OK I now managed to get access.

So what was the magic source?

Feeling slightly stupid now..............I gave it a tap with a hammer and it all seperated rather easily!

Of course once I sort the problem there then comes the problem of putting it all back together :-)

All back together and working again.
