Mr. G, Yes, you are missing something very important, and you may be very close to destroying the piano! I would stop immediately and read about Baldwins plate height adjustment procedure. You could also call Tom Malone and get the instructions from him. It would also be good to learn about the downbearing adjustment on the same piano because the perimeter bolts have to be set properly for the downbearing adjustment to be feasible. Actually, the SF-10 is something of an engineering marvel, you just have to know what the designer intended. Vladan >Another Baldwin engineering marvel.
