Keep the bottom of the lower base upward. Uplift the lower base gently along the direction of the red arrow,
then the lower base(it contains horizontal absolute encoder disk) will be separated from the vertical axis.
Note: in order to prevent scattering the vertical axis ball bearings, the bottom of the lower base must be kept
upward. The vertical ball bearings of every ET are assembled as a whole set. So if any ball is broken

it need to be replaced with a new whole set. So instantly nip all balls into a safety container to avoid any
accident.
