Reproduco "Catch-All Tracker Cleaner"
By Judson Murphy

My Reproduco is of the standard 88-note [spool frame] tracker bar type.
It has the factory installed Catch-All Tracker Cleaner.  However, this
unit has been disconnected from the vacuum source and, of course, it
does nothing.  I have yet to locate where the vacuum supply would have
been tapped to operate the cleaner.   Could anyone tell me where their
unit is connected to vacuum?

There is a good 1/2" clearance between the cleaner bar and its mounts,
and the sliding doors.

Also, has anyone who owns a Reproduco found an actual date of manufacture
inside their instrument?  I don't remember seeing any dates posted with
the known Reproduco serial numbers.

Jud Murphy -  In Colorado where we are still awaiting some good snows
to kick off our skiing season.
