How does this come apart for cleaning? I've rotated the disk to the arrow and can't figure out what to do next. It doesn't just lift off. Help!

Doris, I had the same problem you did and would just yank it around until it worked. But I have it in front of me now and I can tell you that you need to turn counterclockwise to remove it and to put it back take the little square on the outside rim which corresponds to a little square thing inside I Where thing up with the square thing on the outside, not the line but the little square. With the OXO on its side, the little square inside the rim is placed on the 11 o'clock position and turned counter clockwise. So, to take it off, you turn from the arrow counterclockwise to the 11 o'clock position and pull outward a little. if you can't get it off, it may be very tight. mine seemed to loosen up the more i used it so now it's not so hard to put on or off. For the different settings, you turn clockwise. For removal, you turn counterclockwise. I hope this helps.

When it appens to me there's usually a smudge ion the disk, cleaning fixes it. Probably not much help.

The S blade, right? It should pull straight up/off just like slicing disc. If you grab the black plastic and just pull it straight up, it should come off without much trouble.

I took it to a Hitachi service guy. Basically he took it all apart and forced it on. There must be an easier way.So I would appreciate how to do it.ThanksRCR

I've taken similar ones apart before, all you need is a long small Phillips screwdriver. I just hope you had better luck with yours than I did, I didn't use it for a few weeks after I got it and after about two days it started making such a racket it was a joke, after I let it run for a few hours it works fine but as soon as I have time it's coming apart for an overhaul.

Mine didn't come apart but I think it will go back together - think of it as a puzzle - the pieces should fit. I thinkif the problem is not resolved a call to Trident's customer service should do the trick. Found this by googling: www.tridentcase.com/support/contact-us.aspx‎

Put a socket on the chrome nut on the inside of the blender (if it is installed) and use a big pliers on the bottom part that turns (the part that sits on the mechanical base). Turn the chrome nut counter clockwise. It should come apart.

Hmmm... it's looks like a permanent friction fit. I tried to lightly pull it apart, but it doesn't seem to want to do that. If this thing popped open, you should probably try to glue it back together, unless it's still returnable. Note that the head unit is adjustable , as a sort of cheap ratchet. You will probably want to make sure that is still functional.

I have never used the adhesive disk, bur it looks like it may leave some residue to be scrubbed off. I cant imagine it doing permanent damage though.

Great question... I have not cleaned it yet. It looks like it may be challenging to take apart, but I am not completely sure.

It's easy to remove the discs because there are spaces in the middle of the rims on the half of the case where the disc sits, one on the top and another one on the bottom. When you push down to loosen the disc you have spaces to put your fingers so you can grasp the disc by the edges and lift it out. It's a little hard to explain but I hope you get the picture!

Hi, I held mine by the wheel tightly and loosely gripped the body and mine slipped right apart. Try twisting it first to get it loose. Thanks!

I usually start from back of computer push it up till it snaps off the computer. After that it should come off easily off and on. I know the first time it feels like you will break it. Hope it helps. :)

You have to be careful, but you can, I used a small flat screwdriver with just a little pressure and push in just a little while trying to pry apart. I was able to do that and reuse mine. Again, don't use too much force because it could break, but they would probably send you another. Hope this answers your question.

Did the same thing. Had to use a variety of tools to stretch it and then pry it out. Ssds are apparently thivked than hhds

If the piece broke inside u can either take tweezers and try and pull piece out. Or just have a regular laptop shop take a look at it. All they have to do is open it and take piece out.
