Removing the Rotary Knob

  2. Brace the keyboard with your other hand.

  3. Slowly but firmly pull the knob directly upward until it’s completely free from the keyboard.

Installing the Rotary Knob

  1. Grab the knob you want to install and look underneath for the semicircle-shaped mounting insert.

  2. Align the knob's insert with the matching shape on the keyboard's exposed metal post.

  3. Once aligned, press the knob onto the post slowly and firmly until it stops moving.

  4. To confirm it's properly installed, press the knob and listen for a click.
     


Removing the Badge

  1. Use your thumb to slide the keyboard’s magnetic badge out of position. The direction is determined by your GMMK 3’s size.

    • 65%: Slide badge to the right

    • 75% & 100%: Slide upward
       


Installing the Badge

  1. Align the new badge with the empty badge slot, ensuring the Glorious head logo is closer to the edge of the keyboard.

  2. Allow the badge slot’s magnet to snap the badge into place.
