Just a warning- you should not vacuum out through the air holes covered by the pallet from the key, some vacuums produce much more pressure than the reeds & valves (on the other side of the holes) are designed to take in use, which can lead to bending or cracking of either and a reed or valve is much harder to fix or replace than a key.
You should (one should) also not lay an Accordeon on its keys like that. 😬
Very nice video - use of a safety pin as a 'spring' is very nice idea. However I have used a a small paper pin inserted in the space in the treble wooden board , twisted it downward at about 5 o'clock position and put in a very small rubber band between the treble shaft and the pin - and it worked fine. Give as many twists to the rubber band as it becomes almost similar to the 'bounce' of the original spring. Have tried it a lot successfully on my 12 bass Pietro piano accordion( way back in 1950s- as a teenager accordion player) when the springs cracked and spindle could not be taken out. Caution , the rubber bands tend to break after some time, you may keep replacing when required. However replacing with metal spring or a safety pin is a better option as explained in the video . Warm Regards.
Thanks this maybe helpful for me in the future that I bought an old 1940s-1950s acordian of one stuck key.
parquet-floor-ideal for such difficult repairs !
That is laminate floor, not parquet...:)
youtube masterpiece! loved watching it... now I'm gonna fix my accordeon : )
worked like a charm! thanks!
That accordion is gorgeous.
it's old...it has at least 50 years
Stephen Barr: what's so gorgeous about it ? It`s a rather ordinary run of the mill piece.Have you ever seen a really gorgeous Accordeon made in Italy ?
Any instrument is gourguse
I have the exact same model!
if you push the axle by 1cm by pushing it with another axle and remove it with a screwdriver, it would be much easier and would not bend the axle.
Very good but remember to number the keys so you know the order they are put back in , and be careful when you pull the rod out as the keys are often Spring loaded and will pop out.
yeah a customer once made that
with the mechanic (left hand side)
the entirety
over few billion possible combinations
nothing to worry about really :|
MartinDxt Had a e soprani a few years ago that developed sticky notes on the bass side, The accordion repairer used a lubricant spray in the mechanism and pressed the buttons until the buttons were free and able to move without sticking, Had no trouble with it after that
Edward c LOL
that's not how you should do that but if it works ok fine
lubricant spray may still do harm to some other stuff in the mechanism
if it was done purely out of metal
sure why not but there is felt, wax, 2-3 glues, rubber, wood, letter, celluloid, plastic, and at least 2-3 different metals
and every manufacturer has slightly different materials
but if it worked good for you i hope he's been careful in his lubricant choice
I've also got an Hohner Student IV but my base button is stuck. Hopefully I find out a way to repair it.

@@shantaramshirsat9652 harika bir görsel teşekkür ederim
ремонт на полу это круто!
Nie udało mi się wyciągnąć druta 😢 mam Weltmeister i podobno wyciąga się on od połowy klawiatury więc przepychanie go z drugie strony nie wchodzi w rachubę.
You're not gonna play a tune for us???? Well done.
Nice
Is there a way to soften a diatonic accordion buttons

OH YOU BET HERBIE HANCOCK,, YOU ARE THE BEST IN JAZZ AND I PLAY JUST THE WAY YOU SPEAK IT ,, TALK IT,, AND COMPOSE IT,,, I'M IN ALL THE WAY AND WHEN I'M WALKING OUT OF THE STUDIO,,, I'LL BE "IN AND OUT" AGAIN AND AGAIN! HAHAHA

Buon giorno ò visto il vostro video dove riparate un tasto della fisarmonica, anchio vorrei sostituire alcuni tasti ( palette ) mà il perno che tiene le palette non à alcun dado da svitare inoltre e messo molto all'interno ed è imprendibile .può darmi un aiuto potrei cambiare l'asta passante? grazie.
I hav a parrot accordion an one of my key is broke how much to get it repaired
I don't know... try to do it yourself.
Splendid work. Thanks for sharing. I have a question. If the cloth comes loose what type of glue do you use to reattach it?
Cloth? Where? Probably a rubber based adhesive (prenandez)
@@furulevi thank you very kindly for writing. I’m looking at buying an old Yamaha model that’s similar to yours. The metal grate as a cloth liner on the inside and it’s starting to become detached from the metal. Perhaps the cloth superfluous.
Now my bass key is pressed against the left side, even though the shaft is going through the hole in the right spot :(
thought he was going to bust the cover at first prying it over .
0:22 :D
EXCELLENT
It Is a mistake to bend the key arm. Bending can cause air leaks. The problem is the tension spring, not the key arm.The safety pin can do the job, but the head has to be cut too. Then it can be adjusted applying more o less pressure.
This is actually a stuck KEY. Buttons are on the Bass side.
You're right, thanks!
Wird des Akkordeon gestimmt kann man selber nen Akkordeon stimmen.Ich habe auch nen kleines Akkordeon was verstimmt ist.Des ist ja interessant.Super genial.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cuando se sale y es grande y en el Medio
Dont look like a stuck button to me but a stuck key. Maybe
Ese vídeo es de acordeon diferente
Hola ninguno pone la tecla de armedio
Que tiene solo un eje
Nice vid but is that thw only way?
I don't know, I did it as I could, I'm not a professional...
Pará la gente que no sabe y camara más lenta
Ay de otras si saven pongalas
Esa tecla no todas llevan ese resolte
Pero no está poniendo la tecla
Está solo resotes
Pero la tecla
Se engancha por fuera
Ay estás limpiando
Brandenburg Concerto Bach by who please?
Johann Sebastian Bach
@@furulevi Yeah thanks, I meant to say which orchestra and conductor.
I really appreciate this rendition
De palillo
Sam O'nella 1:54
When all you have is a safety pin, the whole world looks like a diaper. You should apologize to that instrument.
The instrument is still working fine :))
@@furulevi
Bravo!
What a clever idea and certainly looks a lot, lot, stronger, than the old feeble looking stringy original.
I have bought two accordions and need to replace some reeds, will the new ones need tuning?
The BEST way to do that job is on a table...not the floor. Vaccum can't be done neither, it can damage the reed Valves.
This accordion is working just fine since this repair...
Cat got your tongue?
Stop the chamber music. Speak.
чому ви все це робите на підлозі?? чому не на столі???
Thee is much more space on the floor...
