How to Remove Stripped Screws
Issue Description
When you take off the baseplate, it's hard to loosen the screw or remove the stripped screw.
Possible Cause
The baseplate uses anti-loose screws, tighter than ordinary ones.
Note:
When you take off the screws on the baseplate, make sure the size of the screwdriver is proper.
If the screw is stripped, stop removing the screw.
Solution
-
Take off the screw with a 5-inch Phillips screwdriver.
-
Remove other screws first, lift the machine, and tap the baseplate a couple of times. Try to remove the stripped screw.
-
Attach a piece of rubber or drop glue to the stripped screw and try again.
- Drop a small amount of mechanical lubricant around the screws and wait a while before removing them.
