Pull tab removal on TM500 series plug-ins


 

Hello, first time posting here. I was recommended here by a few people from the EEVblog.

Anyway, here's my problem. I want to remove the metal face plate on my Tek FG501, but the pull tab stands in the way. My FG501 is a pretty early serial number and thus uses the old pull tab mechanism, where it's just a piece of bending plastic. I know the newer versions use one that is a bit similar to the one used in 7000 series plug-ins, but mine are not so.

So my question is, how do I remove the pull tab on my FG501? Preferably in a non-destructive manner.

Thanks.
