    • Break the two warranty stickers by poking a screwdriver through them or peeling them off.

    • Remove the following twenty screws by rotating the screwdriver counterclockwise:

    • Eight 16.2mm Phillips #2 screws

    • Eight 15mm Phillips #2 screws

    • Four 19.1mm Phillips #2 screws

    • The holes containing most of the screws are deep and narrow. A screwdriver with interchangable bits will not be able to reach them.

    • Do not over-tighten the screws during reassembly. Over-tightened screws can crack the plastic channels holding the shell to the frame of the hoverboard.

    • Use a nylon spudger to pry the metal handle away from the outer shell.

    • Rotate the metal handle toward the center of the hoverboard to unlock the plate from the retaining clips.

    • Lift the hoverboard off the metal handle.

    • Repeat for the handle on the other side of the hoverboard.

    • Lift the plastic cover on each side up and away from the device.

    • Disconnect the following wires by pinching the connector tabs and pulling the plugs out of the connectors:

    • Charging port wires

    • Speaker assembly wires

    • Power button wires

    • Headlight wires

    • Only the headlight wires need to be disconnected from the other circuit board.

    • Ensure the wires are connected to the correct ports on the circuit board during reassembly.
