How do you take apart a Lapcool 3 laptop cooler?

I don't want to break the thing by wrenching it open by brute force, so is there any easier way to accomplish taking it apart? One of the fans is making quite a bit of noise, so I'm trying to fix it.

    First look for screws,then look to see if there is any more under stickers or anti-slip pieces.if you cant find any carefully start prying on it,also if the fan is making noise it is getting ready to die..the bushings have failed..only way to fix it would be Replacing the fan,fan size is 80x80x10.or you could skip all of that if you don't like tinkering with things and get a new one for $20 shipped

    Good old fashioned take apart rules:

    1. Use common sense. (e.g. unplug electronics before taking them apart)

    2. Look for screws. Unscrew them and put them in a soft

    3. Look for hidden screws. Oftentimes they're under stickers or rubber feet.

    4. Don't use brute force. You'll break something. Unless you know that the way something is attached requires such force.
