opened. To remove “SA, COVER-02”, slightly close it by hand, raise its front edge, and slide it
backward.
When mounting “SA, COVER-02”, align the boss with the hole at “COVER, FRAME” and slide “SA,
COVER-02” upward with hooks inserted into “COVER, FRAME”.
<Precaution at disassembly / reassembly>
The hooks and the boss at “SA, COVER-02” are engaged on “FRAME, COVER”. Carefully disassemble or
reassemble the components so as not to damage them. Check the routing of “SA, HEAD CABLE-02”.
