Electrolux PN-100 disassembly

[quebecois]

I just took apart a PN-2000 to clean it and break it free, the brushroll was sort of jammed up, that thing is amazingly well built and easy to take apart and back together.

I planned doing the same with my PN-100 but the top half and bottom half didn't want to come apart. It seems there a tab or something that keeps halves together, i'm not sure, and it could be where my chainsaw screwdriver points at.

What is the way to separate halves wihtout breaking anything ?

Alright, I just figured it out with better light, there is actually a tab, and I had to use a pretty small flat screwdriver to break the halves free.

@quebecois It frightens me just think that you have trouble working on something this simple. I know it's more complicated than a hockey puck. But you might leave it to a professional.
Good luck hope somebody in Canada can help you out.

thank you smart a$$, I clearly pointed out the fact that I didn't have enough light yesterday evening to clearly see the tab.


In a recent past, I successfully fixed the water pump on my Yamaha MaximX 1985, obviously you don't know what you're talking about.

first of all dont take it apart by the bottom and second remove the screws and flip it right side up and take the top off lift and pry foward . dotn take it apart the bottom half you simply remove the top metal lid.....

yaa so much easyer to remove the screws and flip ip right side up pry forward and up watch for the pig tail conection it will give a tadd of trouble but gently remove the lid and voila shes all open much easyer that way
