Getting inside the TEO 5 is easy and only requires a screwdriver.
Tools needed: Phillips head screwdriver.
Getting inside the TEO 5:
1. First, unplug all power/MIDI/USB/audio cables.
2. Flip the TEO 5 upside down onto something soft, such as a strip of bubble wrap or a towel.
3. There are three screws on each side securing the plastic end caps to the bottom metalwork. Remove these screws and lift the sides up and out to free them.
4. Flip the unit back over into its normal position.
5. Remove the 5 screws along the upper back of the synth.
6. Lift up the top metalwork and place it behind the bottom metalwork, on something soft such as a strip of bubble wrap or a towel. Be careful not to stress the single ribbon cable that connects the top and bottom of the synth.
