Hi Everyone! I just got this model AF (among other things) and the rear wheel is broken. I have a spare, but im not sure how to change it (i tried reading one by Captain Crevicetool, but I dont have a grinder or a drill press...) Is there a way to do it differently? I just rebuilt this vacuum yesterday and finished the details today. Everything works perfectly, even the bag sensor! Here are some pictures I took in the shop. The original owners did and did not take care of this. it looks and runs good, yet its been abused. Rocks and Coins in the bag chamber, a STUFFED Bag, and Duck Tape (old, eww!) on the wands! it REEKS Like cigarette smoke. How can I fix that
Thanks!

Your options are cold chisel, file or grinding.

A dremel does wonders and they don't really cost too much. I found one at Goodwill a while back. I think I paid $5 for it.

I will have to try using a file to get the end cap off.
Thanks!
