Hello, First you would need to remove the cover off of the back of the motor, where the electrical wiring is. On the back of the motor in the center is a small exposed portion of the shaft. You will need to slip a wrench on the exposed shaft to "lock" it while you remove the impeller. You may need to remove the capacitor to have better access to the shaft. Here is a link to the How To Replace a Pool Pump Impeller Video.
