To remove the clip, pull it off in a downward way, if you can't pull it, use a flathead screwdrivre to wedge it down. When it comes off you will see a screw. When removing that screw, the rim comes off in one piece and the front grate can be removed. To take the blades off you will see a screw behind the blades, do not take it off, just losen it till you can remove the blades. To take the back grate off you first screw off the round plastic part by hand and remove the 3 screws underneath it.

It is just a plastic clip that is attached to the shaft of a screw holding the metal band around the fan cage. Pry off the clip with downward pressure and remove screw to clean.

You can put the clip on the other side of the knife, but you can't move it to the pivot end. It is tip up in either configuration.

There is a little wrench type tool to pry it off the base. It's very easy and you can use the handle of a spoon if you lose the wrench. To put a new blade on, you just line up the locking mechanism and press it on. The tool is really not that important, but it's handy if you're into that kind of thing.

To remove the wheel, you will need to pry off the center cap with a flat screwdriver, then remove the C-clip, the wheel can then be removed, then the gear and the drive pin. The rest would depend on which sharpening kit you are using. Most would say to adjust the cutting bar then apply the sharpening/grinding compound to the blades and then spin the blades with the supplied crank handle or electric drill. There are plenty of online videos that cover this process.

Yes, but you probably don't want to. Let me elaborate: The clip is mounted onto a plate, which is mounted onto the actual frame of the blade with a single screw. When you remove the clip, you, in essence, add about 1/16 of an inch to the length of the mounting screws. So, while there are no holes between the mounting plate and the actual frame of the blade (and therefore the mounting screws won't touch the blade), the screws will create separation when tightened all the way in (which is ugly) or will stick out slightly (which will cause them to either fall out, catch on things, or look generally terrible).

It's very easy. There are three pieces that come apart. Unscrew the handle from the top part and remove all three. The blade fits in between the top two pieces and the handle locks the all together when you screw it back in. Hope this helps.

Do not move the silver square clip. The blades with the hook type back are inserted and removed in similar ways. Insert the blade partly then while holding the blade strike the handle on a firm surface to seat the blade fully. To remove it hold the blade and strike the handle in the opposite direction. This is the method shown by the manufacturer on the individual blade sleeves.

Use the screws. Drills easily enough and won't come off. The clips will work. Just don't trust them.

Just pull it with a small pliers. It should come out. It is just clipped not soldered

Absolutely remove the blade. Once you remove the center piece, with the large black knob on the back of the machine, three screws is all it takes to remove the blade. You will be glad you did it when see just how easy it is.

Yes, you can remove the clip. But it is so comfortable that it want impact ANY type of grip. No, you cannot move the clip to the opposing or the other side of the handle. You simply will not want to do that.
