"Well we are pretty deep into it now. Our cleaner as you can see is in almost all of its original parts and now we are going to go even deeper. Right now we are going to check out the medium turbine assembly. This is the cone that drives the cleaner. As the water comes through, in previous clips we talked about how important it was to keep this clear, because water comes through here and is brought in through here and that spins this gear and in turn turns this very low gear and that steers the cleaner around the pool. To remove this that just pops off, no big deal. This medium one here, same thing, just slides down. One of the things we test with those though is that it has a good fit and finish and that the teeth are engaged nicely. Another thing I test is with this gear off, it spins, it does not bind or stop. Now to get to the heart and soul of it we want to remove these two screws and then down in in here you gently wiggle it. Again it is easier if it is new. This is our turbine and we want to make sure that that is completely free spinning. It needs to really take the water in and then the last is just to separate this piece out here. It is a little tricky we want to engage it just so and back it out. When it does the little tiny tiny screw here and here and then this bushing here. Now we have disassembled the medium turbine and we are going to talk about putting it all back together next."
