Difficulty Removing Screen

[Klavdy]

G'Day fellers,
I'm having a spot of bother removing the screen,I've taken off the four hex head bolts yet the screen seems to be "Stuck"and I do not want to force it too much in case I break it.
On the back of the supports there are small peg type locater things.
Are they holding it in or something?
Or is it just a bit sticky and the rubber seals need to be persuaded?
You know, apply a bit more muscle?
I don't think the screens ever been off.

Hi,

No, no, no. Have a look at these pics. They explain it all

once youve undone the bolts the screen still can be " stuck " to the rubber gaskets. It will loosen , mine was a tad sticky

+1... do not force the screen, it should come off if you apply gentle pressure

Ta blokes,
I'm a mong, didn't realise that those covers came off and there's another bolt under them.
Google Foo is your friend

Cheers!

That's one reason. The other is that the bolts can be rounded when removing them later, which I found out the hard way
