===Removing the Pole===
Start by placing the plastic battery-ESC clip into the battery.


Remove the 4x Security Torx T25 screws or Hex Screws that hold the handlebar in place on the pole.
[[File:NinebotESXBatteryESCClipInPlace.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The clip placed securely onto the battery.]]


[[File: NinebotEsxHandlebarScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The handlebar screws in place.]]
Thread the dashboard cable through the power cable on the battery.

Plug in the 4-pin data line.
 
[[File:NinebotESXDataCablePluggedIn.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The data cable firmly plugged in.]]
 
Plug in the power cable.
 
[[File:NinebotESXPowerCablePluggedIn.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The power cable plugged in.]]
 
Feed the loose dashboard cable until it is mostly tight.
 
Clip the ESC to the battery.
 
[[File:NinebotESXBatteryESCClipped.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The esc clipped to the battery.]]


Remove the 4x Security Torx T30 screws or Hex screws that hold the pole to the base.
Press firmly to reinstall the dashboard cable into the channel, pulling the dashboard cable tight.

[[File:NinebotESXDashboardCableInstalled.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The dashboard cable installed in the battery channel.]]


[[File: NinebotEsxRearPoleScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The rear pole screws in place.]]
Slide the battery and ESC into the pole.


===Accessing the Internals===
[[File:NinebotESXBatteryEscPole.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The assembly should slide upward into the pole.]]


If you have an external battery, two screws hold the battery on the bracket.
Align the charging port and insert the small screw.


These are either security hex or regular hex.
[[File:NinebotESXBatteryEscInPole.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The assembly should fit perfectly with the charging port lining up.]]


[[File:NinebotESXExternalBatteryScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The two screws holding the external battery on the bracket.]]
If using an external battery, use Loctite/thread lock on the 3 holes.


This will expose 3 more screws.
[[File:NinebotESXBracketPrep.jpg|thumb|center|400px|Blue loctite/threadlock insures that the battery is secure and helps prevent error 42.]]


Take care removing these screws as they strip very easily.
Take care reinstalling the 3 bracket screws as they strip very easily.


[[File:NinebotESXExternalBatteryBracketScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The 3 easily-strippable screws.]]
[[File:NinebotESXExternalBatteryBracketScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The 3 easily-strippable screws.]]
The bracket may be slightly stuck but once these 3 screws are out it can be removed.


If you do not have a bracket then you will have three screws holding the battery in place within the pole.
If you do not have a bracket then you will have three screws holding the battery in place within the pole.

You will also have a charging port cover to remove.
You will also have a charging port cover to reinstall.


Remove the top cover to reveal two screws holding the cover on.
Install the two screws and the cover.


[[File:NinebotESXChargingPortCoverScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The port cover removed.]]
[[File:NinebotESXChargingPortCoverScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The port cover removed.]]


Finally, one more screw holds the ESC in place on the pole.
If you have an external battery, two screws hold the battery on the bracket.


[[File:NinebotESXESCPoleScrew.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The final screw holding the ESC in place within the pole.]]
These are either security hex or regular hex.


Next comes arguably the most annoying part of the disassembly, removing the waterproofing grommets.
[[File:NinebotESXExternalBatteryScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The two screws holding the external battery on the bracket.]]


On the top and the bottom is two grommets that are twisted in place.  
Plug in the dashboard cable to the dashboard in the handlebar.


Press down hard with a large flathead screwdriver and twist counter-clockwise until the slots line up with the metal ridge within the pole.
Test that the scooter still functions before continuing with assembly.


[[File:NinebotESXInternalRubberGrommets.jpg|thumb|center|400px|Keep the grommets attached if you can.]]
Reinstall the 4x Security Torx T25 screws or Hex Screws that hold the handlebar in place on the pole.


[[File:NinebotESXInternalRubberGrommetsRemoved.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The parts of the grommet.]]
[[File: NinebotEsxHandlebarScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The handlebar screws in place.]]


In some cases, pushing the rubber inner part through the plastic retainer ring will make it easier to remove.
Reinstall the 4x Security Torx T30 screws or Hex screws that hold the pole to the base.


Attempt to keep the wires pushed through the rubber part.
[[File: NinebotEsxFrontPoleScrews.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The front pole screws in place.]]


Once both are separated the whole mechanism slides easily out of the pole unless the pole has been damaged or bent.

[[File:NinebotESXInternalElectricalsRemoved.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The battery/esc internals. Here the ESC is highlighted but you want to separate it from the battery.]]
 
A plastic holder clips the battery and ESC together.


Separate the ESC from the battery and carefully unplug the 4-pin data cable and the power cable.
Check that the scooter is sturdy and nothing is loose.
