Remove the cartridge and the yellow tape cutter.

Unscrew the two 9 mm Phillips #1 screws from the top and bottom.

First: To separate the top cover from the body, insert a spudger between the two halves.
-
Gently twist the spudger until the two halves separate. Do this in multiple spots around the perimeter of the cover to distribute the pressure.
-
A small flat screwdriver works for this step. Use on the left and right sides.

-
-
Gently grasp the ribbon wire and top cover, then gently pull the ribbon wire out of its connection.
-
-
-
-
Carefully pinch the top of the connector.
-
Pull perpendicular to the device until the wire is disconnected. Remove the other connector by pulling it parallel to the circuit board.

-
Unscrew the three 9 mm Phillips #1 screws shown.
-
Lift the metal plate upwards, don't unscrew the motor, this will remain attached to the plate. If you didn't remove the yellow tape cutter then it will simply fall out.
