    ATTENTION : As comments say, BV2500 DOESN'T have screws to remove the nose. You interchange blower and sucker by pressing a release button.

    You DON'T need to open the motor housing.

    Just use a socket wrench CLOCKWISE to release the plastic nut in the center of the fan

    • To remove the clamshell, pull apart starting from the bottom until it is pulled out from the notches. Then slide it out away from the device.

    After replacing the switch, the on-off function doesn,t work properly. Spending time why the lever is not able to press the switch. It just slips away. I cant think of any other way.
