Aligning the Player Action to the Wippens
By Joel Gauthier

Hello MMD,  I have just finished reassembling my three striker
pneumatic tiers, and the finger-rail alignment bar.  I have
approximately six pneumatic fingers that aren't aligned too well
with the rail holes, and have more friction than they should.
I have tried to adjust the capstans, but it seems to need a little
more adjustment than that.

Can anyone tell me how to properly align the pushrods, and what
I should do to get the few 'stuck' ones realigned?

Thanks,
Joel Gauthier
