I would appreciate advise on how to remove the side covers of this machine. I have very good reason to suspect that the pump used for emptying the machine, is faulty. I have checked for blockages in the waste pipe, and that the one way valve is operating. However the impeller does not rotate. although it is not jammed with anything and is free to move.
By removing the two screws from the front edge of each side cover, they become loose but are apparently held in place by the top surface of the formica cover. There are no obvious fixings to this surface. I thought it might slide or hinge by means of the two plastic fixings at the rear. I am reluctant to force the issue in case I damage anything.
Any advise would be appreciated. Many thanks
