[sdiy] cleaning JD800 key mechanism from epoxy glue

[dragons]

Hi,
I haven't worked on a JD800 before, but if possible I would remove the 
keyboard contact boards [ if this is possible ] and clean just the 
mechanics. also check carefully that any cleaning fluid doesn't damage 
or mark the plastic keys before you immerse them.

regards Peter B

The synth receives and plays midi so I guess it will work ok once I refurbish the keyboard.
