(Re)Move the Keybed & Remove the Keyboard Rail
It can be difficult to see the delicate pins when installing the S board. By moving the
keybed (the chassis with the keys) and removing the silver keyboard rail, you will have better
sight lines and freedom of movement when installing the S board.
Remove the 4 large external screws from the underside of the keyboard
along the front
edge. The photo below shows the inside front edge of the empty case bottom. The photo
illustrates the location of the 4 screws. You will, of course, be unscrewing from the underside.
Loosen the 3 internal screws at the extreme right and left ends that hold the keybed in
place
. It is not necessary to extract them from the holes they reside in.
Carefully lift the keybed slightly up and out (toward yourself) an inch or so.
. You don't need
to move it much. You will probably need to free up one or more cables to accomplish it. Or if you
prefer, disconnect the cables and completely remove the keybed.
This will give you access to the 3 screws holding the silver keyboard rail in place.
Remove those
three screws and set aside the silver keyboard rail
. (Shown below with keybed removed).
