Lazy Man tip (Battery removal)

Subject: Lazy Man tip (Battery removal)
by jhammons01 on 2009/7/3 0:46:37

That pesky side panel has to come off when you need to change the battery.

It's pretty much straight forward until you come to that last 10mm screw that is located under the Rocker panel.

Once you get it out, and before you button it back up again, get your trusty Dremmel out and make an oval into a slot for reassembly and future battery issues.

Once you do this, you can then slip a 10mm into the thin open area between the rocker and panel and just loosen that 10mm screw enough to slide the panel out...this makes it so you don't have to remove the screw all the way. A real time saver.

Pictures 1, 2, an three are of the hole that is now a slot....

Pictures 4 and 5 are reassembly with a nifty slot
