the regulation of the whole thing. Set the angle of the blade to 45? by 
adjusting the pedal, then set the height of the rod so that when you 
look at it through the the action cavity it makes a straight line with 
the middle of the tabs. Finnally line up the for and aft position 
looking from above. It should show about 1.5 to 2 mm distance from the 
tabs at rest.

Once the rod is regulated correctly, you can determine if there is 
anything needed with respect to the tabs"


People,
What's with all this? You need to have the proper TOOL for checking the sostenuto. It is available from Steinway. Sheesh!  But then, ya need to know how it is used.<G>
