5. Reassembly of the Battery on the Deck
Position the battery: Slide the connector wire of the new battery into the designated cavity.
Screw the first screw: Start by screwing in a screw (see on the photo) to hold the battery in place.
Align the holes: The second screw to tighten is the one at the front of the deck in the middle (It’s the last screw you unscrewed when you removed the old battery). Make sure the holes are aligned before screwing in the second screw.
Tighten the screws: Tighten the screws firmly but without forcing to avoid damaging the deck.
6. Final check
Function test: Turn on the skateboard to ensure everything is working correctly.
