Since I had some knuckleheads remodelling my bathroom think my Fantom Thunder was a shop vac I have had to take it apart for a thorough cleaning. When I removed the "cone" the lower deflector fell apart. I have no idea if this will affect performance or not but I assume it will. Does anybody know where I can get another one?

How to take impeller cover off to clean?

Since I can't find another cone I decided to epoxy it back together.
Right now I have it all taken apart and cleaned it but I can't get the impeller cover off so I can clean the impeller. I have bent the tabs around the edge out of the way but still can't separate it and I need to get my wife back to work. :-)
Anybody have any ideas?

Today I received a new belt, HEPA filter and LED lights, they were cheaper than the incandescent bulbs.
 
Got it all back together and wife loves it again.

Thank you everybody for all of your kind words, assistance, suggestions, support and wait, that was on another forum. never mind.
 
I have one that I will sell...

It's in good shape (just dusty) and I would be willing to let it go for something like $36. Good condition Fantom parts are hard to find. Using one that is stuck together like that might actually hinder performance.
