Unplug it.

Remove four 4mm nuts, accessed through the fuzzy doors on each side.

Tools required:

4mm 3/8" socket
3/8" swivel for inner upper nut will help
6" extension
3/8" ratchet

Five minutes per side.

One of the nuts is recessed a bit in a double panel. DON"T DROP IT as I did because it will be gone forever. If you do, Home Depot has them for $.38 for two.
