    • Turn the device over so that the screen is facing down.

    • In the next step the device will be heated, so the screen must be turned over to prevent heat damage to the LCD/Digitizer.

    • Using a hair dryer, slowly heat the edges of the WorkPad.

    • Spend at least one minute heating each side of the device. This will melt the glue holding the case together, and allow it to be removed.

    • Be sure not to touch the device directly after heating as it will be extremely hot. Use a towel or oven mitt to grab it.

    • Use a plastic opening tool to pry the back case from the WorkPad.

    • If the rear cover is not coming off very easily, you probably need to reheat the case in order to sufficiently melt the glue.
