Although the piano body construction may change from one manufacturer to another, all upright/studio pianos have three basic covers that should be removed before attempting any repairs. See image below:
The top cover is made to be used open during piano playing to let the sound escape and resonate within the room. There is a small pin either in the middle or on one side, to hold it half open. It opens by pulling it up on a hinged door mechanism.
Upper front cover (2a): This usually flips backward for quick access to the hammer action mechanism. In taller upright pianos, this part may not be fixed by screws and might be completely removed....Lower front cover (2b): This may be fixed with screws, or it may lie freely on the keys, serving as a key cover to protect the keys from damage. If it is fixed with screws, use the appropriate scre...The bottom cover is usually held in place by a metal bar in the middle of the piano. Just push it upwards and gently pull the cover towards you. It should have two to three pins on the piano that holds the cover aligned to the instrument, be careful not to bend these pins or force the holes on the bottom side of the cover. These pins act as guides ...
To remove a key for repair purposes, you do not need to remove the mechanism. Find the hammer that the key is associated with (simply by pressing the key and noticing which hammer moves), use the tip of your finger to push that hammer slightly up, and remove the key upward and towards you.

In a contemporary upright piano, there are either two or three pedals. On the left is the soft pedal, and on the right is the sustain (damper) pedal. In some pianos, there is a third pedal in the middle, called the practice pedal. This pedal drops a piece of felt between the hammers and strings, thereby reducing the overall sound of the instrument,...
Although a casual piano player will not need to remove the hammer action mechanism, there is no other choice if one needs to do repairs on the mechanism itself or to change the strings with ease. Removing the covers will suffice to have access to the mechanisms, to examine and troubleshoot possible problems. It is also a good idea to clean the dust...
To put the piano back in one piece just follow these steps backwards, and make sure that no screws are left behind! Being able to remove the covers of the piano (but notthe mechanism), will enable you to examine the internal structure of the instrument, and will prove valuable when you want to buy a used piano. It also lets the sound resonate freel...
