Piece of cake as long as you don't mind fiddling with screws trying to either strip or break the plastic they are screwed into.
Our home had a similar sweeper when we bought it from the PO. I hated the one we had - the pressure driven tail kept watering down the house windows that lined the pool area. It picked up leaves and stuff just fine but not that great on dirt as it would not stay in the collection bag.

Right now I'm doing the vacuum thing manually. Takes 30 minutes 2x week right now. I really dislike it, and have to look at a few leaves at the bottom of the pool in between cleaning, but many these things are spendy!
