Excellent video, thanks to this I've avoided breaking the whole thing. Ridiculously complicated case assembly...

Had a lot of trouble putting the wheel piece together and broke one of the waterproof housing pins. Manage to replace the battery successfully and my trimmer is ready for a second life. Thank you for the helpful video. I don’t like to through away stuff if I can fix it.
