Title: dismantling Gardiners v3 backpack
Post by: lee_dewing on July 01, 2017, 08:55:31 pm
how do i change the battery on a gardiners v3 backpack?

Took screws out, can't get water tank and base to separate.

Is it the pump filter? took off metal filter.
Plastic nut underneath, can't undo.

Help ;D

It's a pig.
Stick your hand in and undo the gubnins inside the tank.
Undo all visible screws.
The tank is moulded into the pump box. Get some flat headed screw drivers and release each moulded recess type bit.

John hewitt backpacks are ideal for removing battery.
