Great tutorial. It was all I needed, since I wasn’t sure how to get the case open. Thanks!

Thanks for the tutorial! Mine had intermittent problem with the on/off switch and I was googling how to open the case. Easy and simple, bets razor I’ve had and not willing to change :D

Thanks for the tutorial… but it is a T8 Torx at least in the Model 7570. I just had to take out the recharchable batteries to get mine working properly again.

Danke für die übersichtliche Anleitung, hat mir gut geholfen. Die wichtige Frage ist immer:

Wie geht ‘s Gehäuse auf. ?

Thanks for the guide! Without knowing how to open the case, replacing the battery would have been a lost cause. In my case the batteries were tired. After replacing and recharging them the razor sounds young again and full of pep.
