The instructions have you clipping one SMT resistor and then removing 
the pieces.

I've did a trial of this method on a junk PCB here.

At least on the board I used, there apparently is some kind of adhesive 
under under the chip.  The clipping process seems to remove the solder 
resist and perhaps any PCB traces under the chip.

Is there anything under R8 that can be damaged?

(Guess not, since nobody complaining.  A blow up of the pix doesn't seem 
to show anything either)
