Reach through the coin door with the power off and pull the locking/engaging handle to release the playfield locking mechanism and then you can pull the playfield up with the glass removed. It will be a straight piece of flat bar, usually a pale yellow/anodised color.

Going off memory -

There's an "anti tamper" switch on the bottom board front left hand side. It looks like a tilt switch. If that switch is open, the game will not have power.
