First of all = be shure all hammers are resting on the rest rail. Then you should be able to pull = the action out. This should be done carefully because afther having moved the = action a little towards you, suddenly it will move faster downwards (to clear de = hamers from the pinblock.) At this moment you should put some pressure on the = front of the action so it doesn't fall down to hardly. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In fact the Vienese action has sliding = surfaces so while sliding it out there is not only a horizontal movement but also a downwards movement. (or upwards when it is slide back in = place)</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't know what the pin on the second = pic is for. Maybe just a pin to hold the action in place?</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hope it helps,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Pierre Gevaert</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV>----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; = BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: = black"><B>From:</B> <A title=philfrank56@comcast.net = href="mailto:philfrank56@comcast.net">Phil Frankenberg</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>To:</B> <A title=files@ptg.org href="mailto:files@ptg.org">files@ptg.org</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Sent:</B> Tuesday, September 27, = 2005 5:06 AM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [Files] Josef = Grund</DIV> <DIV><BR></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyone know how to remove the action = from this piano?
