I'm not sure where you're at in disassembly or what you're trying to
do, but you might find this useful; it's me removing the typing unit
from a Model 28 KSR:

Removing the keyboard unit also requires removing a bar that you can
see me removing here:

I don't think I have a good video of removing the keyboard unit, but
after removing the typing unit and that front trim bar, there are just
a few bolts that remove it from its support frame.  The motor unit
then removes easily from the keyboard unit.

Nick England also has a variety of helpful manuals here:

Manuals marked with DR have information you probably want, such
as 573-100-702TC or 573-101-702TC.

Hope that helps!  If you can let us know what you're trying to
disassemble, I or someone else may be able to take photos or a video
to help you out.
