Duo-Art 88-note Mode Pneumatic
By Eliyahu Shahar

Hi all,  I'm finishing the restoration of my 1925 Weber Duo-Art.
It has the 80-note stack and tubing through the keyboard.  I've got
everything in place and it's playing beautifully (finally) but I'm
not sure how to place the pneumatic that puts it in 88-note mode.

I know that the pneumatic pushes against the finger for the
accompaniment level rod.  It's positioned behind the stack underneath
the piano.  Can anyone with a Duo-Art Grand take a few photos and mail
them to me showing how it's placed so that I can easily enjoy 88-note
rolls on this piano?

Not wanting to start a flame-war, I will only say that I'm extremely
impressed with the tone and expression capabilities of this piano and
system; it is outstanding.

Best regards,
Eliyahu Shahar
