Plueger Saturn model 84 spool cover
Just bought today. Does anyone know how to remove the spool cover, just cannot figure it out.

There's a screw on the under right side next to the foot.

Thanks, the screw head is broke off. Do you think I could pop it off with a screwdriver, then replace the screw without damage to the spool cover?

Yes, if you are careful, but I would use a small drill bit to try to grind down the stud excess first & then pull the cover off to get to what's left of the broken screw. Prying on the cover will most likely bend it.
