I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your Miele rotary iron B865. There could be a few different reasons why the slot won't open up and the iron won't rotate.
First, make sure that you've followed the instructions in the user manual for operating the rotary iron. Check that the iron is securely plugged in and turned on, and that you're using the correct temperature setting for the type of fabric you're ironing.
If the iron still won't rotate, there may be a problem with the motor or the mechanical components of the iron. You could try unplugging the iron and checking for any obstructions or debris that might be preventing the iron from rotating. If you're comfortable doing so, you could also try opening up the iron and inspecting the mechanical components for any signs of damage or wear.
If you're unable to identify the issue on your own, I would recommend contacting Miele customer service or a professional repair technician for further assistance. They will be able to help you troubleshoot the problem and determine the best course of action to get your rotary iron working properly again.
To disassemble the Russell Hobbs 15081 steam glide iron, you have to remove the two hidden screws on the handle. To locate the first screw remove the two adjacent blue buttons which are each held in with two hidden clips front and rear, so lever out with small screwdriver or similar. The second hidden screw is under the pivots of the water inlet lid.(I broke one of the plastic pivots but no big deal). Then using a thin blade, separate the top half of the handle from the bottom half of the handle. A bit of force is needed as there are more plastic clips. I started from the rear.
Once the top half the handle is removed, other screws become visible, so teardown is not hard, just note which screws go where, as they are different lengths.
My problem was that some of the screws/bolts were so corroded I needed to drill them out. The thermostat was also corroded, which probably explained why the thermal fuse had blown. The element was fine.

There probably is a plastic tip broken on the inside handle. The only cost effective way to fix it is to permanently lock the handle in the upright position. If you are willing to live with it that way remove the cover. Toget to inside of the iron you remove two screws holding back plate then lift the body up and slide forward being very careful because the tabs are flimsy.The two knobs on top sliders will pop off with the main body. Aligning those back up to put the body back on can be tricky.you'll see the latch with a spring and have several options to secure the handle permanently. Good Luck. By the way people on here say throw your appliance away and buy a new one. Well if it's not working why not try to fix it . You always have the option to buy a new one!
The plastic slider is broken that moves the press onto the roller.
when you slap against the underside ,where the motor is of the press,and you hear some plastic parts rumbling around ,than that's probeby the broken parts with the plastic ring that fell of the wheel.
