I'm trying to remover the covers on a new (flat sided) rear 9C motor, I got it from Grin a few years ago. I want to drill some vent holes to aid in cooling.
I've taken out all the screws on both sides.
On the brake side I was able to loosen the plate and move it out about 1 1/2" but it seems to be meeting some sort of sharp resistance. I don't want to use much force as these sides can be fragile I've read. Maybe it's just a burr that it needs to get past?
On the geared side I have a single free wheel sprocket, I assume this can be left on. I can not get that side to budge. Do most folks use a thin putty knife to break them free? This side has white stuff (liquid gasket?) between the cover and the main motor.
I don't want to force anything and crack a cover. It seems like these should be fairly easy to remove.
