Before you disassemble your laptop, there are some things you should know about staying safe around electricity and small parts. Reading the [[Disassembly safety]] section will tell you what to look out for. |
|||
The laptop disassembly is also made easier by several things mentioned in [[Disassembly design]]. |

Here's what you'll need to take apart your XO. |
|||
* A dust-free work space, as much as possible. XOs are quite dust-resistant, and dust must not get inside. |
|||
* A clean, flat surface to work on |
|||
* Adequate light |
|||
* Phillips (tm) head #1 screwdriver -- You might want to magnetize it, so it will pick up (and hold) screws. |
|||
* A clean container (or several) to hold screws and other small parts. Screws in the XO are rather special; don't lose them! |
|||
* ''Optional:'' anti-static mat or anti-static wrist strap. Connect these to an earth ground. |
|||
* Be aware that pet cats love to jump up onto a workspace and send little pieces flying! |
|||
If you want to do a large number of more complex repairs, you might want to consider investing in a [[Repair center kit]]. |
