    This machine beat me today – I can not find a way in to it to replace the start cap on the motor – does anyone have any experience with this machine – welded panels, solid base removable front but still no access to the motor !!!!

    dam piece of shxt they are , ok top off front off unscew the pcb from the chassey gives you more to work room to work with
    remove the lower bottom metal plate at the front, fan chamber
    on left will unclip and remove lol , it takes some twisting and turnining untill it comes out . now yer can get yer arm in .
    Tricky it is yer can feel about , 13 mil spanner cut down in half will undo the nut , ALL ONE HANDED I AM AFRAID it can be done . Hardest part is putting the wires back on the cap .
    or a full strip down drum out .

    Angle grinder may set customers cat on fire or worse ……chain drill or tin snip small access panel replace cap fold back up then gaffer tape you may laugh but it’s the easiest way and avoids all the other problems ie felt bearings disintegrating
