I have a Behringer ACH450 Utracoustic amp that I need to remove the chassis to fix a problem with it. I removed the three screws on each side but the chassis won't budge. I didn't see anything else that was holding the amp but fellow forumite Blake Hawkins suspects the handle is screwed into the chassis and holding it however he didn't find any way to remove the plastic end caps on the handle.
Does anyone have info on how to remove the chassis? Several Behringer models appear to have the same mounting system.
Behringer will not give out any service info. |

I'm impressed with your patience. By now I'd of had that chassis out.

I'm not saying it would be good. Just saying.  |

Yes, Jon, we've both been tempted to use the excellent tool pictured.
However, it would be nice if we could keep the handles in their original shape, 'cause I don't know any source for replacements.
Jack suspects that Behringer may just destroy the covers taking them off and then put some new ones on during the reassembly.  |

| I'm having the same problem with my Behringer ACX450 disassembly. From what I can find out, there are two screws underneath handle caps that need to be removed. Now, the problem is how do you remove the plastic handle caps without damaging them? |

I ultimately used "brute force" to get the handle caps off and then accessed the screws. I put a new handle on.
Shortly after I fixed it, the amp was sold.

Update: Found out you have to use brute force with a large blade screwdriver to pyre the plastic covers off. Removing the two screws allows you to remove the chassis. Be careful to remove the speaker plug from the chassis before removing it from the cabinet. |
