If u are referring to covering of plug. Yes that was placed to protect the unit during shipment. If you need more info attach a photo of piece.

ive taken mine off with no problems... up to you but just pull a little harder.. or use something thin like a metal nail file and slide it underneath

It appears to be held in place with a metal retaining clip. I don't see any way to remove it completely, but cutting it off with hacksaw would work. There is a bit of sliding friction, I'm not sure if this would be a problem or not for you.

I have not tried removing it. But it looks like it is held in place with screws and should be removable.

It is easily removed. Unscrew the two plugs in the back and the item will come off.

Yes, I had my cover stolen. I replaced the cord supplied with SS cable. I put a loop at each end and used a padlock. It works great!!! Good luck.

Will probably need to remove it. The stand is very compact. I really love mine because I can leave it on charge or unplug and just let it sit till I'm ready for it.

The string may have slipped off a pulley. The plastic cover pulls off so you can acces the pulleys.

it's a stretchy material, so if you really wanted to you could, but i don't because it could possibly scratch the plastic cover. i usually just wrap the cord up and keep it separately!

The cord is not removable. It's all 1 molded unit. But it's easy to take it out of the sleeve & put it back in.

I read in the buyer comments that the company would replace the cord. Alternatively a few buyer replaced it with cords available in stores.

if you are speaking about the plastic clear cover then is not really a problem . if you are speaking about the hose or the gauge it self then it is better get rid of it and get a new one, Remember you are dealing with pressure and with faulty equipment it won't give you the right reading, the hoses will pop open from the pressure also will let the work properly.

Yes. You will have to take it off your old one and put it one the new one. If you pull down on it, it should slip right off.

I don't use both pulleys like it came assembled; I only use the cord through the front pulley to get further away from the door. When the front plastic pulley broke apart, I moved the rear pulley to the front until that broke. Then I modified the pulley bracket using a roller with a bearing for a sliding glass door; it works much better now.

I just bought mine and have only used it for a week. So far, so good. Sorry, I don't really have any idea what the problem might be. Is the cord still in good shape? Could it be frayed or loose?

Hey. the cord is a bit too long, but the connection is the same, so I just have some extra cord stuffed in. Nothing noticeable on the exterior, just underneath, and no problems after a year of using it. So basically, yes.

It is easily removed. Mine ... I easily removed it and sent it back. It didn't work.
