Installing the 280 Reading Head
Removing the cover
The 280 Reading Head is supplied with its cover separate. If the cover
has been fitted for any reason, remove it by holding the Reading Head
in your hand and pushing two of the lugs from the back using the
end of a Cover Removal Tool (part number D02/445) or a suitable
screwdriver. The lugs can be found in the four rectangular cut-outs
around the edge of the back of the 280 Reading Head. They are
coloured light grey in contrast to the dark grey of the rear case. When
two lugs are free, prise off the other side of the cover using your
fingers under its edge.
(The bent end of the Cover Removal Tool enables removal of the cover
when the Reading Head is fixed to a wall. Place the end between the
wall and the fixing lug, and lever out the lug. To avoid damage to
delicate wall surfaces use a piece of card between the tool and the
wall.)
