Help Repairing Deagan Carillon Roll Player
By Jeff Pulawski

Our church has a Deagan roll player (carillon).  I'm not sure what
type of bell or chime tower it is as I have not seen it.  I believe
it is two octaves (25 bells/chimes).  We can play it from the organ
keyboard but the roll player is not quite right.  If the roll is not
present, the player motor will run, but not when we install the roll.

Who knows how many fingers have been in the mess, but I would like to
have some insight on how it works (how to set up the switches, etc.)
and to get it working, at least manually, and someday on the timer.
There are at least 18 music rolls, most are in serviceable condition.

I wonder if you could find wiring and operating instructions for me.
Also wonder if the installation is in your data base.  It's at the
First Congregational Church Of Wyandotte, Michigan.  My wife, Elizabeth,
just became minister there and I would really like to hear the chimes
again.  Please help me!

Sincerely,
Jeff Pulawski
