Default How to dimantle a Multimo?

Has anyone pulled apart a Multimo satellite dish and put it back
together again?

I need to replace the lnb, but for the life of me I can't see how to get
the old one off!

Has anyone tried this successfully?

I would have tried contacting Zehnder if my german was any good, but
alas it is not.

Not an easy job - I never managed it with mine which appeared to be a
sealed unit. The newer ones screw off, I believe.
Where do you propose to get a replacement LNB?

I've got one from the usual place, ebay:

They are available from Farnell as well but cost slightly more with P&P.

So, I've got the parts but no way of dismantling the old one!

If you have a new one, you could always resort to hack-sawing the old one.
