Re: [disklavier] Re: Pedal problem on new model

2009-02-13 by Carol Beigel

Inside the black metal cover over the pedal solenoids (on some models) is a 
diagram of how to adjust the pedal solenoid.  It is very simple.  However, 
for what a Mark IV costs, I would have both a piano technician and an 
electronic tech present to do the adjustments.  I would contact your Yamaha 
Dealer for a recommendation.
