Default Braun/Oral B electric tootbrush.

I have a Braun/Oral B electric toothbrush that is slowly fading out. At
first, the green l.e.d. charging light would barely light even though it
would still charge. Then, a few days later, the two minute timer that
interrupts the motor stopped working. Finally, the motor speed has dropped
noticeably and will not even run for two minutes. I'm trying to figure out
how to disassemble this thing and maybe replace the batteries. It's
approximately ten years old. Here is a picture of the bottom casing.

I've poked and prodded but can't seem to get this thing apart without
chipping the plastic. If anyone has been down this road before I'd like to
know how to change the batteries.



Thanks for your reply.
