Removing scuff guards

[thorny196]

Has anyone tried to remove their scuff guard ? I tried to remove it from my Tejon but wound up cracking it on both sides. I tried to be careful and only used my hands (did not want to damage coil with screw driver) but the thing was on there pretty good (I did not notice any adhesive) Thanks- Mike

The best way to remove the coil cover is to have a very shallow pan and fill it with warm water to soak the bottom of the coil only and use a screwdriver to tap on just the edge around the outside. Don't insert the driver between the cover and coil. They are not glued on the coils unless they might be used.

Most coil covers are so loose you can lose them.

Thanks Sandman I was thinking about hot water but only after I cracked it. Man is that thing on there tight!! I don't think I have to worry about mine coming off but its hard to get the sand out of it. R/Mike

And once you get it off- leave it off...... saves lot of headaches in the future!!!!!

If you don't want to use a cover, put Duct Tape on the bottom of the coil. Stays on and works great. And it will save the bottom of the coil.
