It is very important to correctly orientate the key tops before they are inserted

into the keyboard frame. 

Failure to do this could result in permanent damage.

Looking into the guide hole on the keyboard frame, there is a tab inside the bottom

side wall (ref. Fig. 6-4). Examining the bottom square stem of a single key top, there

is a springy latching tab on one side (ref. Fig. 6-5a). Checking the bottom of a double

key top, there are two sides of the matching stem (besides the patented balancing

mechanism) constructed with the springy latching tab (ref. Fig. 6-5b).
