ACTION: Mech. Key & Stop

REGISTERS: 11

STOPS: 10

RANKS: 10

PIPES: 503



NOTES
All manual stops are on a single chest and are enclosed behind
glass shutters. Six dummy pipes and fabric are in front of the
shutters.

The Pedal 16’/8’ unit is located behind the enclosure for the
manual stops. The Pedal 4’ Night Horn, which is stopped and has
a very prominent third harmonic, is located below the manual
stops and speaks through a grating above the pedalboard.

The Swell to Great and Great to Swell couplers are operated by
a single toggle switch in the key cheek to the right of the 
Great manual. Moving the toggle towards the player engages the
Swell to Great coupler. Moving the toggle away from the player
engages the Great to Swell coupler. When the toggle is in the
central position, neither coupler is engaged.

All stop controls are to the left of the manual keyboards.
