Hi,
Wasn't there a thread, a while back, that indicated a damper
problem, due to shipping on there sides. The rail moved?
There would be an uneven centre pin pressure also?
It would then indicate that to be safe, store it flat, at least=20
the action.

  Under normal conditions, no. I have had pianos sit on their side for =

  As far as that goes, I am not sure if the weight of the hammers will =
