This should give you access from underneath the machine.To remove the front of the machine is just making more work for you as you will have to remove the doorseal and possibly even the door inter lock.
Remember to unplug machine before doing anything.

Hi Steve, sadly Bosch put a plate on the underside of the chasis of the machine to stop you accessing it this way.

Regards

Ian

take the plate off then! its less hassle, trust me

peoplel remove them in many different ways

if you cant get a decent sized chisel behind it, you can drill a hole in the cast casing behind the bearing shell, to allow the chisel head to get a good lock on it

some grind it out

but, if theyre that bad… is your dum shaft ok?

there is only one answer, and that is brute force and determination, it will come out, you just got to be determined

please work carefully too, protect your eyes, and wear good quality gloves to avoid personal injury

its a wf321, isnt that an earlier type, not the one with a swing out drawer?

[helo_75]

id be a little more thoughtful on this

if its new, its unlikeley to any sort of bearing problem

given the fact the paddles are loose and theres a noise from the bottom of the drum, id have to say its possible theres something stuck in there.

i work for comet, and everyone i did had the conversion plug, instructions and associated bits in

still set on fire though

i dont think the manufacturer would dare to supply the part without the correct conversion, would they?

[helo_75]

all field engineers will become ‘remote’ with inboot parts deliveries, and managed by a field manager

isolated is a good word

[helo_75]

simply heartbreaking for the people involved

some lucky, many not so

will it make comet any better? who knows, but we worked it out that around 100 people will be having a few sleepless nights n the coming weeks

despite what anyone says , theres some genuinley good people , who did everything they could with what they where given… v

you need a license to work with r134a now, ju just cant work with it without one

[helo_75]

thats the front half for the screwed tub, u simply cant repair the welded one!

[helo_75]

would it be fair to assume that if manufacturers were made responsible for end of life stuff, would they factor in better reliability to save costs?

[helo_75]
