Steps:
- Caution: Before beginning, turn off the ionvac and place it on a level surface.
- Keep in mind that your ionvac has many small screws that can be easily lost. Using a magnetic project mat is best to prevent misplacing any parts.
- Flip your ionvac right-side up, turning it so that the front filter vents are facing forward and the power button is furthest from you.
- Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the 8 screws indicated in red holding the base together.
- Use the same screwdriver to remove the 8 screws indicated in orange which hold the rims (bumper arms).
- Remove the rims from your ionvac and set them aside.
- Flip your ionvac right-side up and tilt it upwards at a 45 degree angle.
- Use a Jimmy or prying tool to wedge the sharp end through the bottom crevice (below the sensors).
- Continue prying the outside rim of your ionvac open. You will feel the top shell (frame or cover) loosen.
- Caution: Resist the urge to tear the top shell open until the entire rim has been loosened.
- Lift the top shell off carefully.
- The top shell includes the power button and the space for the filter.
- The bottom shell includes motors for the wheels, the logic board, and the main vacuum.
- There are three sensor slits on the top shell that allow protect the interior from damage without covering the sensors.
- When putting back together, ensure that these sensor slits are aligned towards the logic board side.
- Upon removing the top and bottom shell, loose pieces should be noted such as these bottom rim pieces. These rim pieces are oriented in a way where the piece circled in green is placed underneath the other rim.
- Ensure that the screws are not too tight when putting the bottom rim pieces back together or else the bumper will stay compressed instead of springing back.
- Ensure that this wedge piece for the filter is still oriented in its appropriate place.
- It is located near the motor beside the filter.
- Ensure that the vacuum filter is still oriented upright in the filter casing.
- It is located on the end of the bottom shelf, opposite the logic board.
- The metal bumper, located at the front of the vacuum, should be oriented upright on the sensors.
- It is located on the outside of the bottom shell, at the head of the logic board.
