Introduction

What you need

Step 1

              Remove the Planetary Assembly
  • Place some dish towels or other soft material in the base to protect it from any potential impact.
  • Disconnect the planetary from the motor drive shaft by removing the retaining pin (circled in yellow). You can do this with a hammer and either a pin punch or a Torx T15 screwdriver. Simply hammer the punch/screwdriver on the pin until it comes out the other side.
  • If the planetary assembly doesn’t fall out, you might have to give it a firm pull straight down to remove it.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order. Take care to ensure the hole in the planetary assembly is aligned properly with the hole in the motor shaft before hammering the pin back in.
