Help! Ultra stik 360, trying to change to long handle.

(1/5) > >>

nickynooch:
Anyone with any advice here... I am trying to change my Ultrastik 360 to the long handle.  On the ultimarc site for instructions they just say (http://www.ultimarc.com/ultrastik_inst.html)

Long Handles and/or Replacement Spring:
There are two possible methods:
If your stick is not yet fitted to a panel, remove the 4 screws on the front of the faceplate and remove the swivel assembly.
If your stick is already fitted to a panel, remove the PCB by unscrewing the 4 screws.
Lift off the magnet assembly from the end of the shaft. Remove the E-Ring. CARE: we advise to avoid spring-loaded parts being lost, place a cloth over the joystick when removing the E-ring. Swap the shafts and/or springs over and re-assemble.

I got to the part where it says "remove the e-ring"... what is the e-ring and how do I remove it??!?!?!?!?! Any help or pics would be awesome.  I just hope someone else here has done this!
Thanks,
Nick

I think it's also known as a C-clip due to it's shape:

Awesome I see that... now here's the question... how do you remove it?  I think it needs to go back on after I take it off so I don't wanna break it.

shimmy it off with a small flathead screwdriver. and a pair of needle nose pliers.

Hoopz:
Carefully pry it off with a jeweler's screwdriver and make sure you don't flip it across the room.  Gently pry it so it pops off or slides off onto the counter/work area.
