7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Keycaps are difficult to remove. | Tight switch stem tolerances or improper positioning. | Ensure the puller is fully seated under the keycaps. Apply steady, firm upward pressure. For very stubborn keycaps, try rocking the puller slightly. |
| Tool feels flimsy or bends during use. | Excessive force or incorrect application angle. | Apply force along the longer axis of the tool. The polycarbonate material is designed to flex slightly but should not break under normal use. |
| Keycaps are not neatly aligned after removal. | Inconsistent release or movement during removal. | Ensure a smooth, controlled upward pull and release. The tool is designed to hold keycaps in a neat row. |
