4. Place the piano body on the stand.
WARNING:
Avoid pinching your fingers.
Note 1
Holding the piano body at least
10 cm in from the edge, place
it on the stand so that it does
not fall off.
Note 2
if the piano body is placed too
far to the right or left, or to the
front or back, it will become
unstable.
5. Secure the piano body to the stand.
Black screw
(1)Insert 2 black screws in the 2 rear screw holes on the underside of
the piano body, and turn each screw 5 or 6 times. Push the piano
body forward so that the screws are fully inserted in the cutout of
the meta! piece on either side plank. (This enables you to easily
