Heat your chuck in the kitchen oven up to 350 degrees before you put it on the spindle.

Before I pound the chuck onto the spindle taper (which seems rather unelegant to this 'no heavy equipment' field technician) I am instructed to remove all the packing grease gunk from the components. Household oven cleaner is suggested, and I sprayed some on last night. As I'm getting ready to wipe the stuff off, I'm wondering if acetone would have been equally effective, and if I could use acetone to rinse off the oven cleaner lye solution. Hoping not to burn my hands and eyes off, Patrick Draine _______________________________________________ pianotech list info: https://www.moypiano.com/resources/#archives
