JARAS TOOLS FOR PRECISION CRAFTSMEN<br />

From installing key buttons to regulating grand pianos to hanging vertical piano hammers or leveling both white and black keys -<br />

Tony Jaras has literally revolutionized <strong>the</strong> technology of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Piano</strong> Repair Industry. Over <strong>the</strong> last 30 years, thirteen inventions have<br />

been developed that will undoubtedly secure a high place in piano repair history for Tony. <strong>Schaff</strong> is extremely proud to work with<br />

Mr. Jaras and be able to exclusively distribute his exceptional line of tools. By using <strong>the</strong> best quality materials available, each Jaras<br />

tool is designed to last a lifetime and enable <strong>the</strong> piano repair craftsman to do a more accurate job, as well as to save on<br />

installation or regulation time. Any serious piano technician must consider owning several Jaras tools.<br />

(A) String Height Gauge Attachment. Insert into ei<strong>the</strong>r of<br />

<strong>the</strong> two stands and by placing underneath <strong>the</strong> string an<br />

accurate reading can be obtained from <strong>the</strong> ruler gauge.<br />

(B) The let off rod is <strong>the</strong>n replaced into <strong>the</strong> stand and set<br />

for 1/16” lower than <strong>the</strong> string height reading. Now you<br />

are ready for let off regulating.<br />

(C) Backcheck Gauge Attachment. Insert into stand like<br />

string height gauge attachment and set at <strong>the</strong> same reading<br />

(shown in insert). The bottom of <strong>the</strong> bent rod will be 5/8”<br />

from <strong>the</strong> strings. When <strong>the</strong> hammer is <strong>the</strong> same height as<br />

<strong>the</strong> bottom of <strong>the</strong> rod, <strong>the</strong> backcheck will be properly set.<br />

(D) Damper Lever Height Gauge. Insert into <strong>the</strong> base of<br />

<strong>the</strong> stand and set <strong>the</strong> top of <strong>the</strong> extended part of <strong>the</strong> gauge<br />

under <strong>the</strong> damper lever. This measurement should be<br />

made when <strong>the</strong> hammers are half-way elevated or keys<br />

half-way depressed.<br />
