[Blindtlk] taking apart things while being blind

That's right.  Also try google.  If you have your vacuum's maker and model 
number, you may get instructions that way.  Have done the same thing myself 
numbers of times

Hi, all,
Sub says it all.
Yes, I've taken an adventurous route as a blind person to take things apart.
One time, I ended up dismanteling my own Perkins braillewriter to 
investigate a problem which occured.
The chain that wraps around the two rollers on the inside somehow came off 
and the only way I was going to figure it out was to just take the whole 
brailler apart.
Late last night, I ended up taking apart my Hoover dool cleaner to try and 
figure out why the sound of the motor wasn't sounding right.
I was able to take the base off, pop the brush guard off, but sadly, 
couldn't get the rest taken apart in the hopes I could at least do a deep 
cleanning on it.
Guess I'll have to check out the Dumbies Series at my public library to see 
if they have some stuff on how to deep clean and repair a vacuum cleaner.
*Wow*
I say never say a blind person can't do something like this unless ya try 
first.
*Smiles*
