Hi!

To remove the standoff screw from the diver, see the iFixit guide step 13, for driver replacement.

To remove the standoff screw, you'll have two options:

  • Option 1: Stick a small flathead screwdriver into one of the four notches on top of the screw and use it to slowly turn the screw.
  • Option 2: Use a Torq-Set 6 screwdriver to remove the screw, applying constant downward force to avoid damaging the screw.
  • Note! To avoid to damage the screw, make sure to keep a constant downward force!

Good luck,

Cheers
