New tuner, tuning a player piano

[Tom Driscoll]

I am scheduled to tune an old player piano on Jan 8th. Don't know the 
brand, but I think all the player parts have been removed.

I am a fledgling aural tuner and feel I am learning the ropes quite 
well, but I'm wondering if there are any things to watch out for with 
players? Any books I could get and read by that time? Is any special 
preparation needed?

Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Steve,
	If your short (I'm 5' 6" ) Bring a back brace. I find the added
depth of the case in players makes me pitch forward --- no pun intended
--- and with a history of lower lumbar strains this posture puts me at
risk. If you're tall and or have long arms this will not be a problem
for you.
