Whereas Steinway allows access to the front of the two rocker adjust screws, the back screw lies underneath rail I. I don't suppose rachet offset screwdrivers existed back then.

Looks like the patent got applied for before anyone at the factory discovered that you couldn't set a hammer line on this action. Bill Ballard RPT NH Chapter, P.T.G.
