Player Piano Problems

[firman1]

Justin,
I was able to access the photos.
The air motor, to the right of the spool box (where the rolls go) works off 
of suction, like the rest of the player. If its supply hose is disconnected, 
it will not operate the roll drive. It also sill use a lot of air if open to 
the atmosphere and rob the rest of the player. You could try to reconnect 
the hose, but after twelve years, the pneumatic cloth is bound to be stiff 
everywhere.
Your best bet is to either get Reblitz's book Player Piano Rebuilding, or 
for quick info go to:
