Cleaning an Eheim 2213 'classic' ?

[[email protected]]

Hi,

I'm trying to clean out the impeller area of my Ehiem 2213, but I can't
work out how it comes apart ! I can turn the plastic 'disc' shaped
like this --O-- and then pull the shaft out, but the impeller is too
large to come out through the hole.

How am I supposed to get the impeller out ?

Many thanks !

Kev.

there is another plate that then comes out - O shaped with a protrusion out
one side that acts as a flow director up the out tube... that also comes
out - just hook your finger nail under the center of the hole where you see
the impellor and lift it out!

Cheers

Richard
