Dyson DC41 Mk2 (Erp) - Stripdown and Refurb!
beko1987:
A few months ago now, an amazing ebay steal and a freecycle find had the back of my car looking like this after a lovely drive through oxfordshire one Sunday
The Sebo X1 is already sold, the DC40 Mk1 is still here, but we already have a nice rebuild thread on one of those, so this is all about this:

A Dyson DC41 Mk2 Erp for £5!
So on we go!
Cyclone Off
Turn it on it's side, and remove the red clip holding the brushroll housing on
Drop the cable
And release the hose
beko1987:
Which was lovely and clean!
The wand unclips from the hose
And the tools release button pops off
As does the cover for the top cord hook screw
The screw comes out, as does the spring behind it, and the hook itself then falls off the wand
The hose also splits, and this will show how to split the hose end for repair too! Pop the plastic end cap off the hose cuff
The rubber cuff pulls off the hose end
At this point, you would cut the hose at the tear, remove the remains from this black cuff then glue and screw the hose back onto it!
Inside the plastic cuff is this white cover
Underneath is the latch that holds it onto the wand
beko1987:
It's operated by this tiny spring
It just pulls out of the hose cuff
The main handle is clipped onto the chassis, and released by pushing this black latch in
The top cover and wand cover are held in with this locking tab
And pull off when that is released
Time to remove the tools and tool holder
And pull the combi tool apart
These 4 screws hold the switch cover in place
beko1987:
2 small tabs hold the switch cover on, and once removed it all looks like this
With the two switches like this
Pull all the connections apart
And the mains cable can be removed
The spinal cord can be pulled out this far for now
Time to move down now, and remove the post motor filter cover
The filter had a fair bit of fluff in, but not heavily soiled etc
It can be removed and cleaned up
beko1987:
The other wheel on the other side is bolted on. First you remove this cover a quarter of a turn with a pair of needle nose pliers
The screw underneath can be removed with the same process
And the shell lifted off
The top vanity cover unscrews now
Behind the non filter side sit these two washers, which will fall off if you dont remove them now
The socket for the brushroll housing can be lifted up now it's not held in with the vanity cover
But you can't just take the wires out as they run behind this bit of plastic.
Which you could probably just cut, or you could remove the connectors from the plastic block (they just lift out) and feed them through
