changed out the switch and that fixed the problem

Removed 4 screws and the foot release to attach the new guard. Replaced the foot pedal and 4 screws and was done.

remove the container from base lay on floor unscrew 2 screws one on each side and remove foot pedal. I could see that the foot pedal had small bow in the pedal. You can only see this if you removed.

Fitting the new wheel assemblies was easy as was replacin ... Read more g the housing screws. After reinserting the draw and pushing the unit back into the cabinet it worked like new

Once I discovered that the ram was down, I had to determine why. Opened up the bottom and discoverer the drive gear was broken. Ordered the parts kit and made the repair. Did not know what the other parts in the kit were for, but it works.

Upon the receipt of my part it just had to be slipped into place. I had the part I needed within 3 days of ordering.
My had ordered parts for various items in the past and we have always been very satisfied with the care and experteis of this company.

Removed and replaced in less than 15 minutes. Works like new again
