Autopiano Tracker Vacuum Source
By John Bushey

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

I have just rebuilt an early Autopiano player that was brought to me
with the player removed from the piano.  My only problem is locating
the source of the vacuum for the tracker system.  There is nothing on
the upper stack and the lower trunk has one 3/4-inch and two 7/16-inch
connections for the sustaining pedal and two soft pedal pneumatics.
A nipple could be added to the lower trunk for the tracker vacuum
source, but I would like to keep the player as it was originally
manufactured.

Thanks, John Bushey, Winter Springs, FL
