Einleitung
This is the starting point of disassembling the Lenovo Yoga 7 14ARP8. The same procedure applies to the Yoga 7 16ARP8 model, only with size discrepancies.
To remove the lower case you will need a T5 Torx screwdriver, suction cup handle and an opening pick. Instead of an opening pick, any thin object like a guitar plectrum or a credit card may be used. This guide can be followed without a suction cup handle, although not without increased difficulty.
Before you begin, unplug all cables and attachments, and power down the laptop. Use a soft surface to avoid scratches.
