The first thing I'd do is is point out the inadvisability of ever again trying to rotate any vertical piano by grabbing it by a top corner and either pushing or pulling, regardless of the condition of the casters. It's just way too easy to dump these things that way even with casters in prime condition. Show 'em how it's done.?

Back at UA, we had three?tall Boston studio's, (121's I think), that were very unstable on their small steel casters. I removed them, and installed larger?double wide rubber casters, which made the pianos a little more stable. But to be sure, I sent an e-maill to all the faculty to?warn them not to push the pianos from the top, but to grab them by the handles in the back. We never had one fall over.?
