Opening up a Maxi... :nah:

[oliwatts]

Hi chums,

Just recently acquired a Maxi 110. It works seemingly quite well, but I'd like to open it up to give it a clean and service the motor.

On inspection it seems one side of the cover is riveted on. Anyone else encountered a similar issue, or am I just being dense?...

ta!

Unscrew the screws and the cover slides off, the rivets don't hold it in place - they are pretty simple to work on.

depends on the make but the 2 i have opened the top and one side come off in one piece..

If its all working not a lot you can do other than de-dust the radiator grill tho.
