Installing keycaps
If your Wooting 60HE is an ISO model it comes without keycaps installed. Don't worry, it's easy to install and a great way to bond with your keyboard.
Depending on what keycap set you got installing the keycaps can be as simple as transferring it from the blister to your keyboard.
Make sure to press the keycaps down firmly so it tightly fits the switch. Below you can find a visual layout of all the keycap languages we have available, just in case.
Pulling keycaps
Ready to install a new set or misplaced a keycap? Time to master the ancient art of pulling keycaps using the wire keycap püller.
1. Push
Align the püller over the keycap and push down. Make sure the wire covers at least 2 corners.
2. Pull

Pop goes the weasel.

Keyboard modes & shortcuts
The strength of a 60% keyboard comes from its layers and shortcuts. Out of the box, the 60HE comes with 2 additional layers accessible with the FN1 and FN2 key. Below you can find our default mapping.
