Has stickers about 4" long that attach to the wippen AND the key with center pins through birds' eyes. There are no capstans, per se, but the stickers attach to short rocker arms at the back of the key. Each rocker (?) has two adjustment screws . The action brackets attach to the long frame bolts in the usual way but are also screwed down to the key bed, four brackets with two screws each. So removing the action requires removing 4 bolts and 184 screws, most of which cannot be reached with an electric screwdriver! Some will need to be loosened with an offset screwdriver then taken out by hand and the screws at the back of the action brackets require a screwdrive that can reach all the way down through the action. Removing the keys requires unscrewing 176 very inconvenient screws. Sheesh. Alan, With what you are describing, I rather suspect the key frame/keys/action all come out as a unit. Check under the keybed!<G> Joe Garrett, RPT, (Oregon) Squares Are I
