Lift off the platter and you will find them there.
Section 1 in the user manual ...

To be fair, section 1 is missing on the manual on site!

Thanks Martin, as Peterindicated their is section 1 on the manual I downloaded. I can see the screws and have loosened them. However, I am not sure which are rim brakes, I assume they are three black things attached to the inner platter. I tried to move these but they are not budging. They loo plasticky and I don’t want to break them, please more help here. Thank you. David

Yes, those are the ones. And they can bind a bit.
A wide screwdriver that fits well, and then just turn.
