Replacing Keys

Can't find a service manual online for the Yamaha PSR730. I have a F key that is spongy and needs work. Can you take the keys out in sections or do you replace the entire keyboard. Started to take it apart and couldn't figure out how to get just a few keys out at a time and didn't want to break the keyboard in the process of my ignorance. Is there a service manual available online? Or can you answer my question with instructions. thanks.

https://elektrotanya.com/yamaha_pk001596_psr-730.pdf/download.htmlFound this link to the service manual for the PSR 730 finally. I was able to disassemble the board and get to the rubber strip under the keys. The springing knob under the F key as turned sideways. After popping it back in place a couple of times and depressing the key to see if it would stay in place, it seems to have finally resolved itself satisfactorily. If it doesn't hold, I will order a new rubber spring strip for that part of the keyboard. Was really tough to find this manual though. Glad to have it available. Hope it helps others.

The closest online I could find is for a slightly different model, at https://www.manualslib.com/manual/764032/Yamaha-Portatone-Psr-740.html. Yamaha will likely provide a better service manual at a cost--use the contact information at:
