Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the 11 mm‑long SSD screw.

Be careful not to lose the small spacer under the screw.

Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two 11.8 mm‑long APU tension bracket screws.

Don't remove or install one screw at a time, or you may damage the APU. During disassembly and reassembly, alternate between the two screws a 1/2 turn at a time to maintain even pressure on the bracket.

Use a TR8 Torx security screwdriver to remove the two remaining 7.3 mm‑long main board screws.
