You or your husband can do the work. Just go slowly the first time. There are so many resources on this board that can help you through. Just search for them. Some are stickied. If you get stuck with something we haven't covered, post again and we can often help too.

I undid the springy part from the cabinet when we removed the head to transport it home. I didn't want to go through all that again.

This machine is set up exactly the same. I did it the other way. I hadn't brought tools with me (hadn't planned on looking at machines) and had to borrow a questionable screwdriver from the store. I just took the male connector off, removed the wires that would stay with the cabinet and brought the machine into the truck. I serviced it before I put it back in the cabinet, and while I was reassembling, I re-wired so that wouldn't be an issue anymore.
