I don't know for certain as I have never removed the secondary mirror. Once I had all the necessary precautions in place, it was surprisingly easy to remove and replace the corrector plate.
Meade was exceeding helpful they had marked the correction position of the corrector plate. It looked like liquid paper with a pen marking running through both the plate and it's correct position on the rim of the OTA.
If it hadn't sort of opened easily moving through the hole created by the secondary would have been the neatest solution.
