First, Screens only interchage on single-digit OM bodies.  And they are 
user-interchangable.  See the eSIF for all the different types available.

You remove them by flipping the little black tab in front of the screen right 
under the pentaprism.  The rear-hinged frame will then flip down, holding the 
screen at about a 45 degree angle.

They came with a little blunt-nosed plier which grabbed hold of the tab on the 
screen.  I'd dust them with a Dust-Off can-of-air and use a staticmaster before 
reinstallation.  Don't use solvents.

You might also blow out the inside of the camera and the bottom of the 
pentaprism prior to reinstallation.  They only go back in one way.  Flip the 
frame up and it will lock into place.

What is the best way of taking out and cleaning the focussing screen or
should i rather give it to a proffessional.

Thanks
