<DIV><SPAN class=593112203-16012005>I have an olde Kimball Service =
Manual from
the 40's/50's. It has a<BR>clear picture of how to align the knuckles to =
the
jacks. There is a vertical<BR>part to the shank that goes to a point and =
then
horizontal towards the<BR>hammer. The jack top, at mid point, should =
intersect
that "vertical" line.<BR>It works the same on the Brambach! As I stated =
before,
I have one and I<BR>find, that when the jack has moved slightly too far =
towards
the hammer, the<BR>touch gets real nasty. Adjust the jack to that =
midpoint line
and all's well<BR>again! Essentially, it's the same alignment as a =
regular
knuckle/rosewood<BR>except, rather than having one side or the other, of =
the
vertical jack align<BR>with the vertical alignment point, the middle of =
the jack
top must align<BR>with that line.<BR></SPAN></DIV>
