there is a small hole on the top or side where you push in the small screwdriver and by pressing the spring mechanism close the latch.

 

 

 

 

similar to 3:55 mark, only this one has the small hole in the front.

 

 

 

 

most of the time there are instructions on the inside.

Heydont stress out, when you pull it there is a metal flap, like a spring, take your little screwdriver, and pry it towards the wall as you close the pullstation, you will see how the little flap springs the cover tight. Make sure that you reset the panel, and or have the key to get into the firealarm panel. Also if the fire alarm system is monitored by a security company, they will send the fire department if you don't call them in advance usually a 500 dollar charge for false pulls. You can usuall bypass the system at the panel, if there is a bypass button, bypass the panel and pull the alarm, then figure out how to close the cover with the system bypassed, depending on the system you may still need to restet the panel when it is bypassed. Most are pretty user friendly. There is a number for the company who supplied the system on the panel generally, call them if you are unsure, all the systems are different but work on the same principles. If you bypass the system be sure you take the system off bypass when your done, because you could be crimanaly responsible if you forget and people die. Hope this helped
