Default "Cracking Open" A Kodak Carousel 4400

I have a "new look" Carousel 440 that works OK but is filthy inside. I
want to open it up and clean all the gunk out but I can't get the case
open. I've taken the 5 screws ot of the bottom but something is still
holding the case halves together over on the side where the control
panel is.

It looks like there might be a screw hidden under the clear control
panel piece, or maybe the bottom slides off at a weird angle.

What's the secret to getting the case open?


Dunno 'bout the Carousel 440. But, on a lot of equipment there is
"One More Screw" located under the mylar (or thin alum.) label on
the bottom. Easy to locate (in the mylar case) by dragging your
finger nail backwards across it. Before Torx and that ilk, it was
used to indicate that the customer had opened it up -- thus, voiding
the warranty.
