Hi Dave,<br>
If the arm is not protruding high enough above the keybed, remove the
mounting blocks and remove about 1/8" from the bottom of the
blocks. Re install and regulate the pedal adjustments.<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite><font face="arial" size=2>Hi List,
<br><br>
I went out on a warranty job yesterday. The objectives were to a).
fix a sticky key and b) tune the piano. The sticky key was caused
by a toy model of those wings that commercial pilots wear on their
blazers getting wedged between C 5 and the action bracket. No
problem. Remove offending wings, put action back in, tune, check
pedals. The una corda doesn't work. Take action out several
times trying to figure out why it isn't working. <br><br>
Looks to me like the shift lever has chafed part of the wood on the edge
of the keybed slot. The lever slips right under the
action. <br><br>
Went out again, tried to shift action a little bit so the lever would
grab. I carefully tried to rebed the frame, but it did not help, so
I put the bed back into its original setting. 45 minutes later, a
frustrated tech left the house, problem unsolved. <br><br>
It seems to me that the end of the lever that pushes on the action is not
quite long enough to do its job. It's a brand new piano, and it was
working fine before I removed the action, according to the owner.
Any ideas? Help!! <br><br>
