Ein Kommentar

Bottom cover holds only by 9 screws. You don’t need to remove 14 screws. All screws at the bottom with M2 5x7 label (do not remove two small screws. And one scre on the right in the middle without number on the metal plate). You don’t need to remove screw with M2 5x7 label on the right side, second from the corner.
