HELP HELP HELP me with my Hoover!!!

Hello all,
The other day I worked on a vacuum I have never worked on in my life. I found this really nice (like new) green Hoover Dimension canister at a thrift for a whopping $5.00 with EVERYTHING including the full size quadraflex power head. This thing sounds great and was clean, but you know me before I put it with the rest of my collection I have to take it apart and clean it. I tried for hours to figure out how to get it apart then I decided to take the bumper strips of the sides and maybe that was what is holding it together. Well that did nothing. I still could not gert the very back of the motor covor off ( the peice that has all the electronic controls in it) so okay I give up i'll just put the bumper back on. HA! suprise I messed up. The bottom half of the bumper goes under the peice I need to get off so to get it back on I will have to take it apart. HOW DOES IT COME APART???

Checkrate/Likes Pry off the back wheels with a flat head screwdriver and that will reveal the screws. Remove these screws and the back cover comes right off
