Anatomy of a WurliTzer Theatre Pipe Organ

CONSOLE - HORSESHOE

This is looking at the top side of the horseshoe.

Here can be seen the "ON" preset pneumatics. These inflate, when required, and push the back end of the stop tab arm, upwards, to move the stop tab to the ON, or down, position.

Also visible are the contact blocks. One of each pair of contacts is connected to the power common and the other is connected to the wire that comes up from the cable that runs in the channel on the underside. The four contact blocks in the center of the photo have a seperate common and the main common detours around them. These four are for the Pedal Traps and are seperate because they operate through the Traps 1st/2nd Touch Switch.
