There are four screws that hold the teletype to the base. Take three out and then twist the teletype so that it is angled on top of the base and stable. Then you take the fourth one out. That way it won’t fall off its base. Just make sure the weight is balanced as you take that last screw out.  Then just lift it off.  It’s best lifted from the back.
