Lim asked: 
"Hi,
What is correct name of this adjustment screww behind the damper lever
felt?. Could not find the description in the 'Piano parts and their
functions book."

Lim,
I'd call them: #@$%^&*(()))_)(*&%$$#!!!! Or,....one of those stupid ideas,
that, fortunately, didn't stick around. That puts a piece of felt between
two pieces of metal. A guaranteed way to wear out the felt prematurely,
imo. My fix is to yank them and fill the holes with wood....then, adjust
the dampers the way of all other systems . grrrr! hate them thingees,
(which is my name for them.<G>)
