Good luck with it.

Thanks - that's what I tried in picture No 1 above - the case is separated progressively towards the bottom LH end of the pic - and you can see the separation leads and narrows towards the handle fixture at the top RH. It's more firmly fixed than I really want to put any pressure on. I assume there is some 'trick' to opening it but really cannot figure it out.
