How do I remove pump from bosch wfb 4001?

I have a replacement pump but have been unable to find how to detach the existing pump from the machine. Is a special tool required? Does the motor detach from the housing or does the whole pump assembly have to be detached from the machine frame? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The pump is behind the lower plastic plinth cover at bottom of the front of machine. Remove plastic panal. On some machines there is a steel bottom on the machine & if so, then the only way to gain access is remove the front panal of the machine.
If you are lucky enough to have a machine that is open underneath, then the pump can be removed from underneath by lying machine on it's back, if not.......
The front panel is fixed by: 1xscrew behind soap dispenser drawer handle--remove drawer & then lower r/h screw, two screws at bottom of the front-panel in the fold/step, two screws holding door lock to front panel.You will also need to disconnect the door-seal from the panel-this is retained by a sprung wire. Once front is removed - it's easy.
Hope this helps.
