Hi @chas24362
Here's a video that shows how to remove the back cover.
Here's the hardware maintenance manual for the laptop. Go to p.61 (66 of 105 pdf) in the manual to see how to remove the back cover.
Here's a link to the Prying and Opening Tools available from ifixit.
The above information should help you to safely open the laptop

The RED arrows by the set of numbers 2 & 3, what are the arrows depicting?
I assume the #2 arrow indicates to insert the pry tool and then push the top of the tool upward. is this correct?
I cannot tell what the #3 arrow is indicating.
Thanks for your help!
#2 means insert the pry tool between the cover and the base to disengage the clip and then gently lift.
#3 shows all the points that have clips that need to be released by the pry tool
I got it open! Thanks for you rhelp!
