  1. Carefully align each mechanical switch with the hot-swap sockets on the PCB.
  2. Press down firmly until the switch clicks into place. Ensure the pins are straight to avoid bending.
  3. Once all switches are installed, place your desired keycaps onto the switches. Use the provided keycap puller for easy installation and removal.
