How to remove toilet cistern lid - Dual flush buttons

what's going on guys i'm bill and welcome to bills how to today i'm going to show you guys how to remove the lid on a toilet system now generally speaking it's pretty straightforward you can just simply lift off the lid however there is another style which is this one here and it is very very common and a lot of people seem to get stuck when it comes to these lids there's no real indication as to how to remove these lids and as you can tell it's secured down to the bottom section here all we need is a flathead screwdriver what we're going to do is take a flathead screwdriver and if you have a look at these two buttons on top if i press them down there's going to be a little bit of noise because we're going to flush the toilet you'll notice that once i press this side here down there'll be a little slot on the left hand side and it'll say service so i'll show you guys [Applause] [Music] so you can see that section there where it says service that's the area that we need to get to so what we're going to do is while we've got the button pressed we're going to take a flathead screwdriver we're going to put in that little slot and we're just going to simply pop that little section there up you can see it wants to come up once we've got that section there out we can remove one side do the same thing on the other side and if we have a look inside you can see there's a little uh screw here that we need to undo with a flathead screwdriver once again so a flathead screwdriver is the only tool that we're going to need and we can back that one there off so just completely unscrew it pull that little section there out and once that's done the lid simply comes off guys that is how to remove the lid so to put the lid back on we're going to do everything in reverse however you'll notice there is a little spacer in here what this one here does is it actually lines up our flush position and we have got the center hole for our thread to go back in so just try and line that one there up so that it's nicely centered and then we can put our lid back on the cap will go back on top and we can line those lugs up with that little washer that's down the bottom or the spacer that's down the bottom once we've got that one lined up we can then take our flathead screwdriver tighten up that screw in the middle once that one's on nice and tight our lid should now be secure once again and we can return our buttons push the left one in push the right one in and it's that simple guys that is how to remove the lid on your toilet system hopefully you guys have enjoyed the video and it's helped you guys out as always like comment and subscribe until next time i'm bill thanks for watching bill's how to
