Bosch PMF 180 E power cord / plug replacement

ID: 95421

Description: Your plug is damaged on your Bosch PMF 180 E?...

Steps:

1. Absolutely disconnect the device as the first of the power (;-). Safety first!
2. If necessary, just a little bit of external cleaning so that when opening no additional dirt into the housing interior. for example with the fine brush but it is also an old toothbrush or a bristle brush, etc.
3. Very useful: An exploded view with spare part designation at the end of the description.

4. Loosen 9 screws (combination screw T20 / slot # 5)
5. Tool: T20 / TR20 which u.a. included here. Or with a flat-head screwdriver # 5. I recommend a T20 / TR20 because it handles better without damaging the screws.

6. With a flat object, the housing can now be easily opened along the seam. For example, with Jimmy, which is shown here. It also works with a flat knife or a thin Japan spatula.
7. If the unit is heavily used / dirty, simply pry slightly at several points along the seam until the case opens without force.

8. The housing is now open and further steps can be taken.
9. If necessary can now be cleaned. (in this picture you can see that it is obviously necessary)
10. Do not remove the grease! The drive needs that. Of course, it can also be replaced by a new one.

11. Now first loosen the two slotted screws # 3 so that the wires can be pulled out of the clamp.

12. Pull the wires out of the holder with a gripping tool. For example, with a pair of tweezers or a small, flat pair of pliers.

13. Now loosen the two screws (T20 / slot # 5) of the cable lock and remove the clamp.
14. The cable can now be pulled out of the grommet and replaced
