Figure 8 Separating Control Top From the Chassis

a.Loosen the front shield by prying each of the three clips (four tabs on early front shield) away from the chassis. Be careful not to pry the clips/tabs any more than is necessary to free them from their respective retaining slots. To completely loosen the shield from the chassis, a slight lifting and clockwise twisting action may be required.

b.Insert a small, flat-blade screwdriver in the recessed area of the control top and pry the control top slightly away from the chassis.

c.Completely remove the control top/front shield/controls flex unit from the chassis.

10.Carefully remove the RF board and the controller board from the chassis.
