Remove the top cap, the the pad and platen. Remove the screws from the housings and remove one half. Pull the feet from the housing. This part does have a front arrow indicator. This small detail is important for property alignment of parts. In addition it is important to purchase or remove carefully the dust ring seal. This small detail can be easily over looked. resulting in the lost of dust collection within the sander. Assemble in reverse order.

Removed the sander pad and saw the foot broken. Had to separate the unit to get the foot out so I also replaced the brushes and switch cover while I had it apart. Works like new.

I had to break open the case the remove the broken feet and install the new feet. There were screws of various sizes so I had to remember which ones go where, but that was not a big problem. eReplacementParts had the parts I needed at a reasonable price and I received them in 4-5 days.
