5.
Remove the front section.
6.
Pull off the PARAMETER and VALUE knobs by hand.
7.
Place the front profile horizontally with the buttons facing down. Place the
profile on some stand-off to avoid any pressure on the push buttons.
8.
At the end with the VALUE knob, pull out the two white PCB guides. Opening
up the profile a little will lighten the pressure at the PCB guides, see fig. 5.
Note: All push buttons are loose in the profile after removing the guides.
9.
Use the ribbon cable to lift up the front board assembly a little and then slide it out
gently at the end with PARAMETER and VALUE encoders. The shafts of the
encoders can just pass the profile in this way.
