be very careful, lots of sharp edges, and tightly fitted parts

safety first… it hurts!

oh, and plug out of course!!

Have checked and tested motor and capacitor. Have noticed that the blower which is directly on the back of the drum has its spindle stuck and will not rotate. But to get at and remove this i need to first remove the drum flywheel. I have tried using an allen key (is it conventional when removing allen bolt…anticlockwise??)

Thanks.
