Subject: Re: SDS8 pads question

Hi Steve,

Yeah, they can be taken apart but with care like any of the other
pads. You'll notice that if you lift up the rubber rim the shell is
stapled in to the plywood, it's just a matter of carefully pulling
the staples out without cracking the shell.

I use a sharp pointy knife to get it started and then a broad flat
screwdriver once there is enough room to slip it under. You should
be able to tap the staples back into their original holes once
you've done your repairs.

Cheers,

Matt.
