      • Locate an easy seam for entry and insert the metal spudger to separate the plastic. Use the spudger in multiple places if necessary.

      • Opening the base may require exerting significant force as it is bound together tightly. This step can be dangerous.

      • The spudger is designed to make this step easier.
