To donelson, I want to thank you for your response to richg's unfriendly behavior. As I posted in my reply to him, the parts diagram did not provide the info I needed, but I DO appreciate your thoughtfulness. Thanks

To richg. Just to let you know, I DID explore the various discussion and forum groups BEFORE I made my plea for help. I could
NOT find any info there relevant to my situation. The exploded parts diagram DOES NOT provide the info needed to separate the shell from the drive mechanism. Also, there is NO service manual available for this model. I finally called Bachman's tech dept. and got the help I needed from them. Which makes me wonder why I should waste my time on this forum dealing with ARROGANT people like you!

I am new to this website and for the life of me I CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIND INFO. I am trying to find out how to separate the shell of the NON-DCC K4 Pacific from the drive mechanism. I bought this unit second hand, so I don't have the manual. Can someone PLEASE steer me in the right direction ? Any and all help would be appreciated.
