<BR>Thanks, I thought it looked like there should be something there, and I
<BR>suppose it looks a lot like the little piece of metal with the hook at one
<BR>end that I just sheepishly picked up off my workbench. Bet it will do a lot
<BR>more good back in the piano ;-}

<BR> You answered your own question. There is a spring on the back of
<BR>the keyframe that does indeed return the monkey to the rest position
<BR>(down). Take out the keyframe and turn it around. Use a flat bladed
<BR>screwdriver to get underneath the spring (leaf spring is about 4"
<BR>long). Pry it up while you move the monkey underneath it, and let the
<BR>spring fall into the slot at the bottom. By the way, is this piano
<BR>modified (with a player?). Sometimes the sostenuto spring gets removed
<BR>when installing the player mechanism.
