David  & David,

Thanks for the reply.
For some reason  I don't  exactly use the term key
cover. I'm not picturing this.  Are you using  the term
key cover to speak of the  fallboard?

I'll answer for both Davids, and add another thing. Yes, the key cover is  
the fall board. But there is another thing that will prevent the action from  
sliding out. Underneath the keybed, up where the lyre is attached to the bottom  
of the piano, is where the tubes from the player mechanism fed through the  
keybed up to the hammers. These tubes were attached to several blocks of wood.  
One of those blocks is also used to shift the action. That block is attached 
to  the bottom of the keyframe, and has to be removed before the action can be 
taken  out. It's a pain the rear, but it's the only way the shift will work 
on  these explayers.
