How do I remove the pin on my Rainbow Vacuum Model...

posted by ecmmmm on Apr 04, 2008


I need to replace the clips that hold the motor unit on to the basin. I bought replacement clips, but can't remove the pin that holds the clip in place. How do I safely remove the pin and replace the clip without doing more damage?

Hello,
I would advise you to ALWAYS to FIRST UNPLUG YOUR VACUUM before beginning any service procedure. Rainbow E Series Canister Wet/Dry Vacuum. The Rainbow latch can be replaced but I believe it is a pop rivet that holds and replaces the old latch and to replace the new latch, I have seen it done but if you don’t have the right tools you may want to contact your local vacuum cleaner dealer in your area, it can be done. So if you need further assistance, please feel free to contact your local vacuum cleaner dealer in your area or in the yellow pages, or contact the factory phone number or website to further assist you with your questions.

The Rainbow / RexAir Factory phone number is listed below:
