Here is a picture of my square grand tuning rig. I sit at the keyboard =
to tune. The tuning lever has two tips at 90 degrees rotation to one an=
other for oblong pins. It works well and I can stand straight upright a=
nd walk afterwards.  ;-)

Be sure and have an oblong tip available even if the tuning pins are no=
t the original.
You may need it if the action has to come out as the screws that hold t=
he action in place are oblong head, unless they have been replaced
