PREPARING FOR FIELD LEVEL TESTING: Flip Assembly

7.13Flip Assembly

7.13.1Remove Flip Assembly:

Required Tools: Hinge Mechanism tool, T-4 torx bit, black stick, scribe.

NOTE: i860 flip components include a self-contained Hinge Mechanism (see Figure 7-13), which is removed and installed using the Hinge Mechanism tool. No other tool is to be used for servicing the Hinge Mechanism.

1.Remove T-4 screw holding left knuckle on flex side (see Figure 7-12). Slide out static knuckle (see Figure 7-13).

2.Remove the flip pushbutton by wedging out with a sharp scribe exposing the hinge mechanism (see Figure 7-14 and Figure 7-15). Discard damaged pushbutton.

3.Attach tool to the hinge mechanism. Mate the tool's recessed part with the matched protruding part on the mechanism. Match alignment line on tool with the “MOTOROLA” name on front housing (see Figure 7-16).

4.Insert and turn tool clockwise to engage the hinge mechanism (see Figure 7-17).

5.Once engaged, gently pull the tool/ mechanism while maintaining alignment of the tool line and MOTOROLA name. Adjust flip angle within 3 to 5 degrees to maintain alignment (see Figure 7-18).

6.Twist flip assembly slightly while prodding flex strip out through slot in front housing (see Figure 7-12).
