Taking the DW911 apart ?

How did you get it apart ... I have removed the 4 screws but it seems to have some additional/hidden points of attachment.

There are actually 8 Case screws *all on the back - need a long philips #2 to do it. Might have to remove the handle frame too for access and ease.

The entire case is "glued" around the apparent seam (face comes apart from back).

Use a rubber mallet (hammer) to hit it on the bottom (large plastic area near the seam) to start the separation, once it starts, rip it apart by hand - being careful that there are a couple of 'Plugs' to unhook when you separate the face from teh back.

Yes, there is a fuse in there and it was the fix for mine - fuse blown.
