Come on.. don't underestimate me THAT much.

I've been TRYING to take out tha screws.. & when I try.. I put TONS of pressure on top of tha drill & it strips out tha screw..

eww...I bet you have shavings all in the motor now. All that metal that you are stripping off those screw heads is going straight into the gap.

Just use a large phillips head bit. and a drill...use lots of pressure. Thos screws are probably soaked in lock-tite or ca glue. Pretty standard practice.

See, there's your problem. You didn't take out the screws.

Make sure you use a #3 bit, also... put you drill's torque setting on 1 (slower, more torque...)

Sit the motor/basket on the floor... put ALL of your weight on the drill... and go for it.

Hell, I've taken MANY apart with a screwdriver and elbow grease...
