Step 1 — Battery Pack

• Remove the battery pack cover.
• Remove batteries.

Step 2 — Side Handles

1. We recommend using a nylon spudger for this step. A metal spudger is shown

•  Grip the controller firmly to remove the side handles, wedging a spudger into the seam between the front and handle plates.
• Pry the side plate away from the front plate by moving the spudger back and forth. You will need to do this all the way around the side plate’s seam.

Step 3 — Screws

1. There is a hidden screw located in the middle of the controller behind the label.
   • Use a screwdriver and punch a hole directly in the center of the label.
2. You may also lift the label if you do not want to puncture it.
   • Remove the five 10mm screws located on the back of the controller using the TR8 Security Torx Screwdriver

• Remove the back plate.

Step 5 — Face plate

• Remove the face plate

Step 6 — Thumb stick

• Remove thumb sticks by pulling them up off their poles.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
