Ams Lite stuck fillament inside top of push fit

Hi
I had a rare issue today when a roll of fillament had run out and the very last piece got stuck below the push fitting at top and could not get out …
i managed it after a while by using the small allen key in kit and pushing hard up from bottom , as using fillament would not budge it…

so here the question , i tried removint the two screws on top but looked like the clear palstic bottom was still connected somewhere . Did not want to break or force it so re tightned up …

is there anywhere where some one has dismantled a AMS lite ?

thing this would be handy if this happened again…

thanks

There is a small notch on the right side below the hub, ,use a small screwdriver to pop it up. The hub & spring will be released & you can pull the filament out.
I’ve had to do it once so far.
You do not have to take the extruder off.
