  1. I have a Dewalt 4-1/2 inch Angle Grinder Model DWE4012 - 7.5 amp with Paddle Switch. I want to replace the brushes and am having trouble getting the housing apart. There is a single screw on the rear section of the housing that I removed and tried to pull the rear cover off. It moves about 1/8 of an inch and then it won't move any more - I pulled fairly hard on it but no give. I didn't want to start prying on it or use excessive force and cause damage in case there is some other fastener to remove. I just replaced the cord on my Bosch angle grinder - housing is very similar and after removing the rear screw the rear section of the housing pulled off fairly easy. A copy of the parts diagram for this model Dewalt

    is attached - doesnt seem to show and other fasteners that I can see.645398037_DWE4012Dewalt.jpg.2843bb59d22f75fce2873504e3218466.jpg

     

    Appreciate is anyone has worked on this model before and had any advice on taking it apart.
