Hi

I am trying to remove the bottom cover of an imac 350mhz slot loader

it says in the manual to just pull it off - but it feels like the tabs at the front of the unit will break if I do that

how do you remove it without breaking it?

thanx in advance

It does take a bit of force and it definitely sounds as if it's breaking when you do it, but I took mine apart a couple of times and nothing actually broke. I think it's one of those things where you just have to cross your fingers and go for it.
