Installa on

 

Procedure

 

25 

You

 

can

 

now

 

turn

 

your

 

a en on

 

to

 

the

 

installa on

 

of

 

the

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

solenoid

 

assembly.

 

This

 

procedure

 

is

 

not

 

required

 

when

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

is

 

not

 

installed.

 

 

Because

 

there

 

is

 

a

 

certain

 

amount

 

of

 

varia on

 

in

 

the

 

architecture

 

of

 

grand

 

pianos,

 

you

 

will

 

probably

 

have

 

to

 

custom

tailor

 

the

 

following

 

direc ons

 

to

 

suit

 

the

 

mechanical

 

dimensions

 

of

 

the

 

par cular

 

instrument

 

you

 

are

 

working

 

on.

 

 

The

 

key

 

elements

 

to

 

focus

 

on

 

here

 

include

 

the

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

lyre

 

rod's

 

upward

 

projec on

 

onto

 

the

 

keybed

 

immediately

 

above

 

it,

 

the

 

loca on

 

of

 

the

 

large

 

hole

 

through

 

which

 

the

 

original

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

pitman

 

dowel

 

projected

 

to

 

reach

 

its

 

corresponding

 

hole

 

in

 

the

 

wooden

 

or

 

aluminum

 

damper

 

tray

 

(which

 

li s

 

all

 

of

 

the

 

piano's

 

dampers

 

simultaneously),

 

and

 

the

 

rearmost

 

OUTSIDE

 

ver cal

 

wall

 

of

 

the

 

keyboard

 

compartment,

 

called

 

"the

 

belly

 

rail."

  

The

 

proper

 

installa on

 

of

 

the

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

solenoid

 

assembly

 

takes

 

into

 

account

 

the

 

dimensional

 

rela onships

 

of

 

these

 

three

 

elements.

 

 

In

 

addi on

 

to

 

providing

 

for

 

both

 

the

 

manual

 

and

 

automa c

 

opera on

 

of

 

the

 

piano's

 

dampers,

 

you

 

want

 

to

 

give

 

the

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

solenoid

 

as

 

much

 

mechanical

 

advantage

 

as

 

possible

 

in

 

order

 

to

 

minimize

 

the

 

power

 

required

 

to

 

ac vate

 

it.

  

Despite

 

the

 

excellent

 

design

  

of

 

the

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

solenoid

 

assembly,

 

its

 

long

 

term

 

opera on

 

depends

 

upon

 

your

 

skill

 

in

 

loca ng

 

the

 

various

 

leverage

points

 

which

 

enable

 

it

 

to

 

func on

 

both

 

manually

 

and

 

auto

ma cally.

 

 

Op mally,

 

the

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

solenoid

 

assembly

 

will

 

be

 

mounted

 

on

 

the

 

belly

rail

 

immediately

 

behind

 

the

 

sustain

 

pitman

 

dowel

 

which

 

formerly

 

con

nected

 

the

 

old

 

trapwork

 

lever's

 

far

 

end

 

to

 

the

 

damper

 

tray

  

in

 

the

 

keyboard

 

compartment.

  

This

 

arrangement

 

provides

 

the

 

shortest

 

distance

 

between

 

the

 

sustain

 

pedal

 

solenoid

 

assembly's

 

lever

arm

 

and

 

the

 

load

 

imposed

 

by

 

the

 

damper

 

tray

 

through

 

the

 

pitman

 

dowel.

  

Where

 

such

 

a

 

situa on

 

exists,

 

you

 

will

  

use

 

the

 

four

 

moun ng

 

holes

 

to

 

locate

 

the

 

four

 

#10

 

x

 

1"

 

panhead

 

screws

 

used

 

to

 

secure

 

the

 

pedal

 

solenoid

  

to

 

the

 

belly

rail.

  

If

 

the

 

belly

 

rail

 

is

 

too

 

close

 

to

 

the

 

pitman

 

dowel,

 

locate

 

the

 

solenoid

 

on

 

a

 

frame

 

member

 

or

 

on

 

an

 

extension

 

a ached

 

to

 

the

 

frame

 

member.

 

 

Now,

  

measure

 

the

 

distance

 

from

 

the

 

center

 

of

 

the

 

pedal

 

solenoid's

 

pusher

 

p

 

to

 

the

 

exact

 

center

 

of

 

the

 

damper

 

tray's

 

pitman

 

rod

 

loca on.

  

Sixty

 

per

cent

 

(60%)

 

of

 

this

 

distance

 

FROM

 

THE

 

PEDAL

 

SOLENOID'S

 

CENTER

 

(that

 

is,

 

the

 

lion's

 

share

 

of

 

this

 

distance)

 

is

 

the

 

loca on

 

of

 

the

 

fulcrum

 

of

 

the

 

trap

work

 

assembly's

 

straight

 

bar.

  

The

 

remaining

 

40%

 

of

 

this

 

distance

 

becomes

 

the

 

minor
