2. Remove 2 screws from the back panel
3. Lift rear panel and wiggle - May break on one side
4. Unplug 3 x flat cables and 1 x molex. Unscrew flat cable clamp
5. Pull out left side cover so that scanner can be lifted vertical and removed
6. Remove the encoder strip releasing at the non-spring end (right side when viewed from the front)
7. Take your time with this, it is easy to rip the hole
