Rex, Thank you for your answer. I looked for those screws already and found nothing. That's why I am so puzzled about it. With other answers through the pianotech page I was made aware of the leg screws, that might protrude into the back of the action. This seems to me a possible answer since I could lift the front of the action and look underneath.

I wanted to open a Premier Baby Grand 4'9" and I stumbled upon a problem removing the action. I removed the fall board with cheek blocks attached, and the key slip. There were no other screws holding the action in place. I also removed part of the trap work since I thought, that the broken 'soft' pedal might have something sticking upward to make removing of the action impossible. I was able to lift the front of the action up so I could look underneath, whether a screw might have been drilled through the key bead and so impeding the removal of the action. There was nothing visible. The bass side of the action gave way to about 1/8 of an inch, the treble side moved nothing. (The sustain pedal shifts from right to left). The action felt like being screwed to the back of the piano. Does anybody have an idea what I might have missed? Thanks for looking at this.
