Flip the keyboard over, laying the it key-side down onto a clean work surface.

Only one foot (the one next to the power switch) has a hidden screw underneath—you don't need to remove both feet.
Insert the pointed end of a spudger at the edge of the foot.
Push the spudger underneath the foot and pry up to release its adhesive.
The foot should come away from the keyboard without much force. If it feels stuck, apply more heat and try again.
Once you can grip the foot with your fingers, peel it up and away from the keyboard to remove it.
