Introduction
Sometimes, the unexpected can happen. For example you may get into an accident and end up damaging your precious Abask A8 and it doesnt turn back on! This guide will teach you how to successfully remove Abask A8's Internal Assembly.
Before you continue, please unplug the Abask A8 from its power source and hold the power button down for 10 seconds to avoid dispelling leftover energy. You may also wear an Anti-Static Wrist Strap to prevent electrostatic discharge.
While using this guide, please take caution when removing each component. There are thin ribbon cables and multi-colored wires throughout the camera that are fragile and should be handled with care. To identify the ribbon cable, look for a thin silver ribbon that looks like duct-tape.
