[pianotech] tight glidebolts

[Jack Houweling]

Thanks Marcel,

That is what I was looking for. 

I did use a tuning hammer but like I said the action bracket on this model
was in the way making it hard to set any tool on firmly. So they are tight and obstructed.  I will try and get some  photos.

Regards,
Jack Houweling

  Hi Jack,


  I'm sure a drop or two of Protek wouldn't hurt and could help.

  Now I'll bet he's wondering why he didn't think of that.  Jack - if you don't want more helpful responses like Wim's, offered, as I would have, sans emoticons, you'll need to be more precise in you description, or include pictures.  Tight is one thing.  Obstruction is something else.

      Hi Jack,

      Is this a slotted bolt?

        I had a problem with tight glide bolts on a Samick Grand. The action brackets were in the way making it difficult to turn 

        the tight glide bolts. I tried different wrenches but could not get a proper grip to turn the bolts.



        What is the fix for this? Lubricate, retap?





        Regards,
