First: Removing the cover



The rear right of the QX-10

Note the white circles. You must then remove two Phillips head screws found there. There may be a small piece of plastic that covers the opening. Set that aside.

The left side of the QX-10

Note the white circles, center left and right. You must remove two larger Phillips head screws here.




The right side of the QX-10
