14.Attach the instrument. Warning: The side panels are easily scratched; please use caution.

Lift the instrument with both hands, being careful to keep them not closer than 70mm from both ends of the piano to avoid pinching. Position the screw heads pro- truding from the inside of the left and right side panels, so that they are aligned with the grooves at the left and right ends of the instrument. and gently lower the instrument onto the stand. If the instrument is aligned correctly, the screws on the inside of the side panels will fit firmly into the grooves.

Warning: Carefully lower the left and right ends of the instrument evenly, keeping the instrument at level, and being careful not to pinch your hand or drop the instru- ment. Lifting only one side is very dangerous and may also damage the metal fixtures of the instrument itself. You must raise or lower both left and right ends of the instrument simultaneously, keeping the instrument at level.

Assembling the stand > Assembling procedure

You can perform this step more easily if you use your body to apply pressure to the side panel of the stand while slid- ing the instrument onto the stand.

Make sure that there are no uneven gaps between the top surface of the instrument and the top of the side panels.

If you notice any unsightly gap, make adjustments by loosening the screws (a) that fasten the side panels to the pedal beam, front bar and speaker box.

If there is a very noticeable gap between the instrument and the side panels of the stand, or if the gap is uneven, it may be that the instrument was not placed correctly on the stand. If so, lift up the entire instrument and place it correctly on the stand.

15.Finally, remove the cardboard hoods and save them in a safe place for future use. After removing the hoods, the bolts on top of the metal columns of the stand will fit the corresponding holes under the piano.
