What are you talking about? Generic stands are simply something that help keep the handheld scanner from falling over. It may allow for a tilt of some degree to allow for better seeing if it’s placed on a desk while you are seated at that desk. And no, I’m assuming you are not referring to removing the guts of the scanner from its housing (case)… you don’t need to remove anything from any case unless you are talking about a carry case the scanner is placed into unless it pleases you to do so.
