Rozia HQ242 Trimmer Spring Replacement
ID: 171643
Description: Use this guide to replace or repair a broken...
Steps:
- Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the two 6 mm screws securing the blade to the trimmer.
- Gently lift the inner blade straight up and away from the device.
- With the blades removed, now is a good time to clean the trimmer using a small brush, dust blower, or q-tips.
- Gently lift the spring away from the trimmer.
- You may need to point the legs of the spring at a 45-degree angle before you can pull it out.
- Take note of the shape of the spring. There is a flat U-shaped bend that rests on a notch in the trimmer. This information will be important when putting everything back together!
- Align the flat U-shaped end of the spring to the notch on the trimmer.
- Gently pinch the two legs of the spring with your thumb and index finger, aligning them to point towards the front of the trimmer at a 45-degree angle, then drop it into the slot.
- Once it is successfully in, carefully let go. If it falls off the notch, you will have to wedge it out and try again. This may take multiple attempts.
- Make sure that the spring is securely resting on the notch, or the trimmer may not function properly!
- Reinstall the inner blade.
- The notch located on the back of the blade must align with the gold-plated contact.
- Gently push down so that the plate rests against the front of the trimmer.
- Take extra caution not to dislodge the spring from its position, especially after pressing down on the blade.
- Carefully reattach the outer blade.
- The screw holes protrude just enough to allow the blade to 'click' into position.
- Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to replace the two 6 mm screws that secure the outer blade.
