there are two mounting screws in an awkward location. One just below the steam adjustment, and one to the side of the electric board on the right.

note the scale, this is after I ran descaler through the machine. Particularly troubling is the stem leading to the group head.

Water hits the edge and follows the portafilter to splatter wide. Hits the handle and runs the length of the handle.
