Make sure to insert the tool in the seam between the black and gray portions of the backing. If the tool is inserted between the screen and the black portion then the screen may crack.
Move the iFixit Opening Tool along the seam until the entire backing is removed.
Be careful and try not to use too much force while taking off the backing because you may damage the clips. If you damage the clips the backing will not fit properly back onto the tablet.
