Place the pedal bars (S4) with the rubber-plated end into
7)
the socket of each pedal.
Adjust the hexagon spacer elements (S3) of each pedal bar
8)
by turning the nut and spacer. The spacing between spacer
and switch should be approx. 3/8“ (9 mm) for a comfortable
playing experience. Make sure all of the pedal bars have the
same spacing to ensure similar operational behavior. Secure
the spacer with the nut after aligning the positions.

Caution
Be careful when bringing the piano into an upright posi-
+
tion. There is an enormous risk to overbalance the unit
when not handled properly, which may result in damage
to the instrument, personal property or even cause seri-
ous injury. Make sure that a minimum of two persons
are involved in accomplishing the next step and follow
the instructions carefully.
Don’t let the entire weight of the piano rest on one leg,
+
when placing it in an upright position, otherwise the leg
might break due to overload.
Place the piano in an upright position. Be absolutely sure to
10)
hold the piano at the positions shown in Fig. 2.6 to minimize
the risk of overbalance. Lift the whole unit, rotate it and put
it down on all legs simultaneously.
