This is a Farfisa Mini "Deluxe" Compact. It's the second and
most common version of three Mini-Compact organs made by Farfisa.
The two "Deluxe" Minis have an octave of gray bass keys with
white sharps, as seen here.
|
|
Their model number is "MC/3 = MINICOMPACT",
seen here.

Before you begin to disassemble the organ, make sure it's unplugged from the wall.
Then, remove the BASS VOLUME knob, shown here, from its
potentiometer shaft.
Also, remove the gold screw next to it.
|
|
Then, remove this gold screw on the opposite end of the control
panel.
|
|
Now, you can lift off the control panel and lay it aside. The pilot
lamp is still wired to the organ but there's enough slack in the
cable.
The wooden top panel is also easy to remove. It's held down by four
silver screws, shown partly
extracted in this photo.

Here's the Farfisa Mini-Compact with the top panels removed.
Along the back, three of the organ's twelve oscillator-divider boards are
visible.
To remove the divider boards, you must slide the organ chassis out of the
bottom half of the Mini-Compact's case.
First, reinstall the metal control panel and then flip over the organ.
