Angelus Orchestral Piano Player
By Brian Chesters

Hi Steve,

I have sent a copy of your questions to the list server
'rolls@foxtail.com' as I am sure there will be someone there with one
of these who can tell you the exact label to put on the control levers.

On your piano, you have two or three pedals, one on the right is the
sustain or loud pedal and on the left is the soft pedal. Two of the
levers will operate these but it sounds like the rods that connect to
the pedals are missing. You will have to make the out of metal as they
are important to the music. The pull stop one on the left connected to
a flap will be a volume shutter, opening it makes the reeds sound
louder. Dont know about the other one, perhaps someone else can help.
Glad the rolls are the right ones.

Brian
