I have only just ordered a few of the hinges from Schaff knowing they would have to be manipulated somewhat.  the originals have a 90 degree bend, and  looks like the ones from Schaff are straight.  So, yeah, some adjustments will have to be made for this one to work.  Thanks for the feedback.

It's usually the hinge nearest the lift rod that fails. If you need to "customize" something, which may not be as perfect as the original, I suggest placing it further away from the the broken one and replacing the broken one with one of the originals.

Wim speaks of the brackets, but it sounds to me like you are talking about the "hooks".  Yes, they come straight, so that they can be hammered into the hole on the damper lift rod.  Once secured in the rod, they need to bent to the the 90 degree angle.

Thank you Jurgen.  We will call the one closest to the lift rod #1. It is the one that failed.  I moved #2 into #1 position. However, it will not work properly without something in the #2 position.  I will see if I can make the one from Schaff work somehow when I get it.  I appreciate your input.

Sorry to be so late to  the party here.  We didn't build this piano, but a lot of the hardware specs are the same.  It is possible that we may have what you're looking for.  I have attached a picture.  See if this might be what you need.  (There are 2 sizes.)

Thanks,

Hello Veronica,

This was a timely post by Keith.  I have a Hobart Cable console with the same problem.  How do we order parts from Samick or yourself?

I had also thought about pulling one off a console action I had lying around.

Thank you

Patrick
