<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Well, I was looking for that Journal article you
wrote. I've used the straps ever since I read it (thank you very
much), I just couldn't remember if it included information about this type of
dolly.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma, new york, times, serif">You
can use a nylon ratchet strap to secure the tilter to the back posts. You'll
get a short adreneline rush when it teeters between the casters and the tilter
but if the two are joined together, it won't go anywhere. No need to remove
the dollies. </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I need to do a little bit of bridge repair on this piano
and want to tilt it. I've never tilted an instrument with this type of
dolly. Do I prop the piano up on some 4x4s (or whatever) first and then
tilt? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Thanks,</FONT></DIV>
