Does anyone here know the proper procedure to remove, without breaking,

The above is a link to the FL-50 manual in PDF format on the Olympus U.S.A.

answers to all your questions about this flash.

I'm sorry my response was not helpful to you. I hope someone else can aid
you in finding a solution to your troubles.
