Oreck Orbiter diagrahm

I have a orbiter that I bought used.  There is a rotating plate that is hitting a motor bolt.  I can’t tell if the plate is bent or if a spacer is missing.  Is anyone familiar with these units?  Or where can I find an exploded parts diagram of it. 

Thank You

Oreck Halo Vac

How do you remove the cover to the fan housing on a Oreck Halo Vac?

I am replacing the fan (impeller) which has a broken blade.

The cover seems to be pressed into the housing face.

Simple prying with a sharp tool-like knife does not work.

More force may crack the cover. Thanks.
