Maintenance

b. MX-F402/-F403

 Turn two lock pins 90 degrees anticlockwise using 

a flathead screwdriver and then push them off 

inwards. If it is hard to do so, slightly tap the end of 

driver handle.

The lock pins can also be turned by using a 4mm 

hex. wrench from the inner surface of the magnet 

capsule unit. In this case turn the wrench clock-

wise. Note the pins will be damaged if they are 

turned in a reverse direction. After unlocking, push 

it off from the outside by using a bar.

After the lock pins are removed, detach the impel-

ler unit from the magnet capsule unit by slightly 

tapping the back of the impeller unit with a plastic 

hammer. If the impeller unit is hardly removed, 

warm it in hot water (approx. 90°C) for five minutes 

and tap the back slightly. Be careful not to scald in 

hot water.

The impeller unit can not be separated from the 

magnet capsule unit unless the lock pins are 

removed. Do not have a strong impact to remove 

the impeller unit.

4.  Slide a top of a flathead screw driver in between the 

rear casing and the motor bracket to pull out the cas-

ing. Pay attention not to scratch an O ring surface.
