# The Schon Replacement Keyboard

The SCHON replacement keyboard is supplied in two parts, the keyboard-circuit board, and a new case top that fits directly onto a standard QL base. A one page set of instructions is provided that are very clear and easy to follow, and it should not take more than 19 minutes to complete the exchange of the old for the new. It only requires a screwdriver.
