Anybody had to pull the handle off a Hoover Conquest C1800?

[Scott Crowder]

I'm trying to replace the cup assembly and I have to pull the handle off to do it. I'd wager King Arthur couldn't pull that handle from the bar. Anyone else ran into this problem and have any advice. All the screws are out of it. It just won't let go.

nope but maybe this parts diagram will help you figure it out or find a screw you missed

Thanks, I had already looked at that. I'm thinking hammer meet concrete, buy a new one afterwards.

In the end I took a hammer to it. I'm thinking a nice wooden handle might be a better replacement.
