I'm not sure exactly what you are describing here, & why it would = be different from a carpeted floor, but I always put a big wide nylon = belt around the piano and tilter and ratchet the whole thing together so = that wherever the piano and tilter go......they go as one piece! It only = takes a minute to do and I sleep better at night - and no broken legs.

Under most circumstances this is = true, but in the case of hardwood, tile, cement or any other hard slick = floors the piano can run off the tilter and shoot the tilter out from = under the piano at high speed presenting a extremely dangerous = situation. Here in our shop we have had two broken legs over the years = from this very situation. We do not allow any of our men to tilt an = upright by themselves.
