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 bot= tom 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 woo= d. 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 t= aken out. It's a pain the rear, but it's the only way the shift will work on= these explayers. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Wim <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT lang=0 face=Arial size=2 FAMILY="SANSSERIF" PTSIZE="10"= >Willem Blees, RPT<BR>Piano Tuner/Technician<BR>School of Music<BR>University of Alabama<BR>Tuscaloosa, AL</FONT></DIV></DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
