Cleaning Tracker Bar with Vacuum Cleaner
By Sam Harris

I'm in the habit of using my wife vacuum to clean out the tracker bar.
After searching the archives I saw one entry suggesting cleaning the
tracker bar using a vacuum cleaner.  There was also another article
wondering if the suction produced would damage the pouches.

This question was never answered, and I'm wondering if using the crevice
tool (as I do) to clean the tracker bar damages the player?

Have a great day,

Sam Harris

 [ Let's get some numbers: how many inches suction does a household
 [ vacuum cleaner develop?  A hand-operated tracker bar pump?  A
 [ player piano?  What is an appropriate suction for cleaning the
 [ tracker bar and the bleeds?  -- Robbie
