Hello!
I need some help. I bought a replacement burr set for my old compak k8 (see photo of half dissembled coffee grinder to double check). I thought that it was going to be easier to change them (as I saw the video that compak has available on the internet for the newer k8 model), but I get stuck in on of the steps of dissembling burr holder.
I can take the first few 'layers' off but when I get to the point of taking out the actual burr holder (the one on top), the burr holder wouldn't rotate. I think that is because of two ad-hoc located pieces of metal that stop the burr holder from rotating (see photos). I have no idea of how to move these so I can take the burr holder out. I tried introducing these towards the axis of the grinder but that wouldn't happen and I haven't got a clue on how to do this. Please help me! I've been trying to sort this one out for a few hours but I seem to be stuck. Any help you can provide would be highly appreciated.
