Step 1 Bottom Casing



• Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove the four 9 mm screws from the bottom of the EasySMX X15.
• Use an opening tool to gently pry between the seams of the controller to separate the lower and upper casings.
• Be gentle when separating the lower casing from the upper casing to avoid breaking any of the plastic snap tabs.

Step 2 Battery




• Push on alternating sides of the connector to disconnect the red battery cable from the board.
• If that doesn't work, use a pair of tweezers to firmly grip the sides of the connector and pull straight away from the socket. Hold the tweezers closer to the connector to get a better grip.
• Pull from the tab, not the cables, to avoid damaging them.

Step 3
• Use a spudger to pry the battery loose from the controller.
• The battery is glued onto the control board, so it may take a bit of work to release it from the adhesive.
• Remove the battery.
• Don't bend or pierce the battery. If the battery is swollen, follow the guidelines outlined in this article.
