[QUOTE="Posi, post: 7115700, member: 49592"] Believe me the blower is pretty much idiot proof. Just take the bolts out of the snout. Then lightly pry back and forth. Everything is located with dowels so you pretty much can't mess it up. Just try and stay even when prying on it or just don't pry it to much to one side. After that the rotor plate will come off really easy also. After that lay it on something clean and literally wash it out with a garden hose with a nozzle on it. Just turn the hose down when you wash the front bearings out. Spray it with brake cleaner to help dry it. Get some synthetic grease for the front bearings but don't overpack them. Just a couple of dabs on your finger to fill them. Not so much when you put the shaft of the rotor back in it pushes grease into the case though lol. Then put the rotor plate back on. Which by the way the dowels keep you from doing it wrong. Then just put the front snout back on. As far as cleaning that just hold it upside down and spray it with brake cleaner. There's some nylon gear holders or whatever they're called and if they are wallowed out then I'm sure Steig will have some. Put some RV sealant (lightly) on the snout plate after cleaning the surfaces. Clean the bolts with a wire brush and reinstall them. Then torque them to 21 ft lbs. and you're done. Oh and as far as oil just use some 10w-30 Mobil 1 and you're good to go. Fill it up until it trickles out the hole and now you're completely finished. [/QUOTE]
