similar tool to snip the material between the knock-out
holes on each side of the turntable motor cover and lift
the cover off of the base plate.

of cover that have become bent at the snip points are
flattened before reinstalling.

cavity.

motor packing and cushion are in place, but do NOT
reinstall the motor mounting screw. Rotate the cover
180 degrees and flip it upside down. Place the tab of
the cover into the channel in the base plate and use the
motor mounting screw to secure the cover to the base
plate.
