Hmmmm. I'm not sure exactly what you are describing here, & why it would =
be different from a carpeted floor, but I always put a big wide nylon =
belt around the piano and tilter and ratchet the whole thing together so =
that wherever the piano and tilter go......they go as one piece! It only =
takes a minute to do and I sleep better at night - and no broken legs.

Yes, and perhaps you will find yourself "praying" that two people =

yourself will be lifting it back up! Especially the old uprights, =
they can=20
sure get pretty heavy - a good tilter really pays its way here!=20

Terry and list, just a warning here, tilters are advertised suggesting =
one person can safely tilt an upright. Under most circumstances this is =
true, but in the case of hardwood, tile, cement or any other hard slick =
floors the piano can run off the tilter and shoot the tilter out from =
under the piano at high speed presenting a extremely dangerous =
situation. Here in our shop we have had two broken legs over the years =
from this very situation. We do not allow any of our men to tilt an =
upright by themselves. Please be careful!=20
