DC07 post motor filter

First, my earnest thanks to Beko 1987 for his series on strip & rebuilding Dysons.
There is a point I dont understand in the one about the DC07. In part:

The post motor filter cover pops off now

but the accompanying photo is not clear. Do you really just stick a screwdriver in &
force? I am afraid of breaking something. I suspect that you must use the right s/d,
in the right place, & twist the right way. Thank you for advice.


(I would have replied to that topic but the system asked me to start a new one).

Just use a small flat blade screwdriver, you need to just lever the barb at the front, and then one at each side. not much leverage is required
The only way to fail is not to try.
