Friden 130 cover removal

[William Layer]

Maybe a little OT, but..

I just laid hands on a Friden EC-130 calculator, and I'll be darned if I can figure out how to take the top cover off of it.

The cover *seems* to come off by sliding forward, but there are a pair of pins in the rear that keep it in place. I've tried to flex the cover enough to clear the pins, but the resistance encountered is more than I am comfortable with.

How does this thing come off?
