Eightarc Fusion Button Replacement

はじめに

This guide shows how to remove the buttons from the controller, letting the user replace them with new buttons, clean, or customize them.

Use this guide if one or more of the buttons on your device are broken, not responding, or dirty.

Warning: Use caution when placing the joystick face down on the table. The joystick can crack if placed down too hard. Be sure to gently turn the device over and place it face down. It can be helpful to balance the other side of the device to distribute the weight.

Warning: The components on the buttons (plastic tabs, wires, connectors) are very fragile. Handle with care to avoid breaking or damaging it.

Use a Phillips Head #1 screwdriver to remove the eight 9.65 mm screws located on the felt and metal backplate.
Do not confuse the four screws in the rubber feet with the eight screws in the felt. The screws in the feet do not need to be removed.
