3) The adhesive on the back of the screen takes around 20-30 seconds to soften after heating. It is recommended to wait a bit after heating.
4) Ensure proper usage of the suction cup, referring to the installation tutorial and ensuring a firm attachment.
5) After confirming that the screen ribbon cable has been disconnected, position the suction cup in the area where you can exert the most force, preferably in the upper-left corner. This is to avoid users attempting to remove the screen without disconnecting the ribbon cable, which could result in damaging it.
6) Slowly increase the force applied while using the suction cup and closely observe the gap between the screen and the cover.
7) If the gap unchanged after applying a certain amount of force, it indicates insufficient heating and further heating is required.
8) When the gap loosens slightly, insert one corner of the screen adhesive cutting tool about 3-5mm deep.
9) Start cutting the adhesive using the screen adhesive cutting tool, without applying any pulling force on the suction cup at this point.
10) Once the adhesive has been cut on all four sides, use the suction cup to lift the screen.
11) After removing the screen, place it aside and allow it to cool down to ambient temperature before proceeding with further operations.
12) If the adhesive cutting sheet becomes delicate when inserting the gap, you can cut the damaged part and use the rest part.

Please note that these steps should be cautiouly performed to avoid any damage to the screen or other components.
It is recommended to follow the specific instructions provided by the manufacturer or seek professional assistance if needed.

1) Do not attempt to lever the screen hard.
2) Avoid using hard or metallic screen adhesive cutting tools.
3) Do not forcefully pull the screen if it has not been adequately heated.
4) Avoid prolonged heating in one specific area of the screen.
5) Do not use excessively high temperatures during the heating process.
