Seek PianoLodeon Repair Information
By Al Good

Hi friends,  I just purchased a PianoLodeon from eBay, not working.
I opened it this morning and nothing appears to be broken, but all the
tubing is dried out and falling off.  That will be simple to repair.
However, some of the "hammers" (for lack of a better word) were in a
rotated "up" position and some were lowered.

Everything needs to be cleaned because of years of storage and dirt.
The motor is stiff from felts being dried out.  I think I can get that
going.

Can anyone email me a copy of a manual of any kind that would explain
how this jewel is supposed to work?  Anyone stateside ever serviced one
of these?

Any advice is appreciated.  It came with six pristine rolls in the
original box, so it must have been taken good care of when it was new.
