Hi,
I wonder if the individual keys on the keyboard of a T 22 are fastened
the same way as they are on a TP 600?
I have several machines of the 600 models in various condition, including
a couple that I have cannibalised for parts. Now a friend has bought a T22
that has an american keyboard.
Using that one with swedish keyboard drivers messes up the keyboard
layout since we have an additional three letters in the alphabet. Rather
than buying another keyboard maybe I could just replace some of the keys.
I have done this on 600s. When prying a key loose there is a risk of
breaking the white plastic things that fastens they key. I have a bunch of
those for the 600 but no spare ones for the T22 and hesitate to take that
risk unless I trust that I can fix it with spares I already have.
Can you use a key from TP 600 on a T22?

Pull them from the corner next time. They usually pop right off without a problem.
