<html> <body> Phil, I've worked on one of these little monsters recently.  The one I worked on you have to remove a piece of the case on the left to tune the lowest notes.  This also gives you room to remove the action and deal with pinning problems (in my case).  Putting it back in was like threading the eye of a needle.  A little feeling around with the whole action was necessary.  Careful not to catch on anything, ie move s-l-o-w-l-y. Good luck, Andrew Anderson At 09:23 PM 5/9/2006, you wrote: <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">This piano is the "everthing connected to the bracket" type. No problem with runaway stickers or benefit in removing the keys. Action is held in place at the top by four square headed fat bolts threaded in the head to recieve bracket fastening screws. Clearance here is somewhat a problem, but the damper rod sticks out the back so far that there is no possibility of clearance except perhaps at the bassmost end of the piano. I hope I'm making some sense here. Anyway, I'm also hopeing to get a little advice on what to do. I'm thinking I may need to remove the holding bolts from the plate, move the action all the way to the left and lift out. Any suggestions? Thanks.   Phil Frankenberg Chico Ca.     Phil,     Great suggestions from our pals on list.     This is a method to hold the guide rail in place.This was mentioned on list some time ago and I forget the author.     I used to use the damper head idea but like this better.     Tom Driscoll RPT     </blockquote></body> </html>
