the machine. (Figure D)

(towards the control panel), keeping the bottom edge of the cover against
the motor base. DO NOT tilt or strike the cover during removal.

from their tracks. Doing so will cause damage. The cover must only
be removed by sliding it forward (towards the Control Panel).

Make sure the Back Cover is fully seated in the back and the side
latches are in their grooves before inserting and tightening the
mounting screws.

(Figure D) DO NOT overtighten. DO NOT use the mounting screws to
pull the Back Cover into position. Doing so will cause damage.
