Take apart hopper duo

[CLASSICDIRECTV]

I am wanting to clean out my hopper duo but when I take out all the screws the top is still stuck on near the rear where the output ports are

You sure that won’t break the plastic lid? Lol

Also do I have to remove the screws that are around the ports on the back?

They're probably machine-pressed together. Besides potentially missing screws, there may be tabs that need to be pressed

Yes. Once all those screws are removed, the plastic case slides off, if I remember correctly. I have only taken apart a Hopper Duo once, and that was years ago.

I never saw a Hopper Duo. But I am extremely skeptical that the screws adjacent to ports are holding that cover on. HG may just need to slide the cover back to get it off, since he already unscrewed the most likely fasteners.

It was a huge clip, also idk what I did but now the back dosent stay down so I think the screws aren’t going into the back of the top case
