Lindna piano had the same system  they also had screws at the front so 
you could do the dip. The idea of the adjuster at the back is to leavel 
the keys However, the Lindna piano had keys springs on the balance so 
you could not use washers.

Other interesting ideas they had was the revise tuning pin, as you tuned 
the pin clockwise the pin came out, this made string fast as you set the 
pin down to the plate, that pushed the coils up to the becket and as you 
pulled the piano up to pitch the gap was formed between the coils and 
the plate.
