Disconnecting Power Cable From Unit

[5900_XL-1]

Ok, I can't seem to disconnect the charge cable. Worry about breaking it. Is there special trick besides brute force?

No trick just pull straight back or pull to the side.

Yeah, mine was tight at first, too.

Try rocking it lengthwise, as you pull straight back.

Mine loosened up quite a bit after the first few charges.

Thanks. Just seemed stiff and didn't wanna break something. Got it off.

This, although mine hasn't loosened up as of yet.

Its easier to SLIDE it to the right..... comes right off. Id becareful pulling to hard. Some of those arent glued well and could come apart. I checked and put a dab of epoxy around mine.

Yep, slide away from unit and it comes right off.

I've noticed that you don't need to "snap" it on . The magnet pulls enough for engagement . Comes apart easily.

Not on mine. It really 'locks on' around the edges, and I gave up sliding after applying considerable force.
Maybe it will loosen up that direction with time.

Like you, I'm worried about pulling it apart, and would prefer to slide it off.

Do both plugs have the problem?

 

[dewcon4414]

Sounds like you got some good magnets there lol. If you got the 800 you should have 2 charging cables...... try the other one. Both of mine slide easily to the right with my thumb.

I use my finger to pull out on the round side of the plug and it comes off. If I pull on the end where the cord goes in it wont come off. The round side it comes right off.
