Step 4
Remove the sylus-holder and the
black stylus-clip (marked in
yel-
low
).
The picture shows the positions of
the components, which were remo-
ved in
step 3
(
yellow
lines).
Remove the screws marked
red
next. Note the different types of
screws. Note the different lenght
and thread of the screws (they will
damage the Newton™ if screwed
into the wrong hole).
Open the battery-box by carefully
using a knife. Start at the side with
the opening for the battery.
Step 5
Remove the spring for the battery-pack.
The spring is really strong, be careful.
The plastic-parts wich hold the spring in place are very fragile. There‘s no
way to put the spring back if the holder is damaged.
Step 6
The Logic-Board is held with the latch
marked
blue
, shown in the upper area of
the image.
Lift the board starting at the battery-hol-
der while unlocking the latch carefully.
Make sure that the PCMCIA-Card Slots
lift also.
Don't remove the board now. This will be
done in the next step.
