How to Transport a Wurlitzer 3800

by thebernings » Fri Jul 18, 2014 5:05 am

We're getting ready to move and have a Wurlitzer 3800. The Service Manual does not give any instructions on how to prepare it for transport. Any advice or suggestions?

Please read the "sticky" posts above--that's well covered --

I did read the post. However, I'm not mechanically inclined and the service manual does not address anything specific that needs to be done. There is no operator's manual. Are there parts in the Wurlitzer 3800 that need to be tightened before it's transported? If so, where would I find these? I'd appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thanks! Faith

From what I still recall--everything as stated above, in the sticky, except the turn table does not come off, on 3400 up, WurliTzer models, and the "Mechanism board" should be locked down using the two or four (?) bolts provided.
