MS Natural Ergo Keyboard 4000 Sticky/Stiff Spacebar Fix

[Guest Paul Michaels]

I bought a newer MS Natural Ergo Keyboard 4000 to replace my very old

white MS Natural Keyboard Elite.

 

I was very disappointed to find that the space bar was stiff or

sticky. So I searched the web for all the possible solutions.

 

Here's what I found and tried:

1. lubricate plastic posts on underside of key (didn't work)

2. twist metal sway bar away from each other slightly (acceptable)

3. remove metal sway bar completely (acceptable)

 

I took pictures of the procedures. Here's the gallery -

Hopefully this will help some of you that have this keyboard.
