Access Panel
This provides access to the Maintenance Ethernet and the Joystick ports.
1. Push the left (front) side of the panel in, and the latch will release it.
Pushing the panel a second time will reattach it to the platform.
2. Pull the left side out, and slide the panel to the left.
The panel is attached with a lanyard, to prevent getting lost.
You will need to place this panel out of the way when removing the left side cover.
Side Covers

2. Pull the bottom of the cover, near both sides, away from the chassis.
3. Work your way up the edges of the cover, pulling it away from the chassis as you go.

The light disc wires plug into connectors on the inner side of each side cover.
5. Unplug the light disc connector, and move the side cover away from the platform.
Repeat for the other side cover.
