I need to replace the power cord for sure and some other stuff on it but I can't seem to figure out how to get the chassis out of the cabinet, there are a couple of machine screws on the back that are accessible from the top side but when I removed them the chassis didn't seem to want to budge, so I checked underneath and sure enough there seems to be 4 bolts underneath but I can't seem to get them loose, plus I'm not sure if this chassis comes out from the front of the cabinet or the back of the cabinet, the way it looks, it looks like it should come out from the front, but I'm not sure.
