After the screws are removed from the underside of the shredder the two halves are prevented from being separated due to something in the area of the main switch.
Can anyone tell me how to proceed

Thank you.

There is another retaining screw underneath the identity label. (7 x Screws in total)
If you press your finger over the label surface you will locate the position by seeing a small depression in the label over the moulding hole.
Remove this last screw and the cover will lift straight off.
