Removing the K2600X Keyboard Assembly
The following procedure assumes that the K2600X is open and that you have followed the
instructions to remove the top enclosure.
1. The keyboard is secured to the bottom enclosure using nine screws. Refer to Figure 4-13
for the position of the screws. Arrows identify the locations of the nine screws.
2. Tilt the K2600X up and remove the four keyboard rear screws, then lay the K2600X flat on
your work surface.
3. Move the K2600X forward so that the front hangs over the edge of your work surface to
access the remaining screws, and remove the five keyboard front screws.
4. Remove the four Mod Wheel screws and washers. At this point the keyboard is loose in
the bottom enclosure, but it has cables connected to the Mod Wheel Assembly and the
Keyboard Scanner Board.

5. Slide the K2600X back onto your work surface.
6. Lift the Mod Wheel Assembly and disconnect the Aftertouch flex cables. These cables
have nylon reinforced tape securing them to the bottom enclosure. Peel back the tape from
one side to free the cables.
7. Place the Mod Wheel Assembly in its position on the bottom enclosure.
8. Remove the cable locking clip and disconnect the flat ribbon cable from the Keyboard
Scanner Board. This cable is also secured to the bottom enclosure with nylon reinforced
tape. Peel back the tape from one side to free the cable.
Note: If you are merely replacing one or more keys, it is not necessary to entirely remove
the Keyboard Assembly from the K2600X. Follow the procedure on page 4-29.
