For S&S, this type of attachment is generally found only on
Hamburgs. It also appears on some other European instruments.
If yours is a New York, it might have been specially fitted with this
system if it was going to be moved around much. It looks to be
original, so I suspect that this might be the case.<br><br>

<dd>Getting pertinent information out of you is like pulling
teeth!<G> What you have described is called "Wing Bolt"
or "Wing Screw". However, I do not recall any such on any
Steinway, ever. Yamahas and Kawais, yes.<br>
<dd>Please explain where this "wing screw/bolt" would be
located on the piano.<G><br>
