What does the latch look like inside? Is it like a Victor 3 or 5?Phonolair wrote:You may be able to get a thin (thickness) blade puddy knife between the motor board and case above the button. Than you can push directly on the latch with more force, good luck

This is what the early Victor 1 latch looks like. An odd shape because its above the rear bracket plate.

Thanks Larry,
I finally got it open using a quarter to push the button in and then raise the motor board. It was just stubborn. No surprises in it. I did get it lubed and tuned up.
