Removing Dynamo on B7100HST

[jimwsr]

Does anyone know how to remove the dynamo from a B7100HST (Old Style). There are six bolts and I cannot figure out how to get to the middle one on the bottom. Any help would be appreciated.

Ah yes. The fun bolt to remove and even more fun to install.

Take a combination wrench and bend it to fit. That is what I did. With the bent wrench it'll go much faster. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks for your suggestion. I was going to try to bend a box end wrench however the last time I tried to do that on something I ended up breaking the wrench. Going to see if I can to find a 10mm wratcheting box end. Believe Sears might have them. Thanks again for your help.

I just happened to be in Sears over the weekend and saw that they had a generic GearWrench brand of SAE and metric ratcheting box wrenches and even had one type that had flex heads. This would be just the thing for this application. However not cheap at $99.99 for a 7 wrench set. I'd wait for a sale.

Just get a cheap 10 mm. The bend required isn't all that much. Think you'll find there isn't room for much else.

Went to Sears tonight and in fact did buy the GearWrench 7ps set of metric wrenches. Angle on these sets is greater than the Craftsman sets. The cost was only 49.95 on sale! Came home and took the nut right off within minutes. So, thanks folks for all of your help.
