The Pedalboard; The Organ Bench - Johannus Opus 5 User Manual

The pedalboard

Typically, AGO (American Guild of Organists) organs have a 32-note AGO pedalboard.
The pedalboard is removable. At the front of each pedal key is a magnet. This magnet normally
sits in close proximity to a reed switch, which is invisibly mounted behind the black painted front
panel at the bottom of the console. When you depress a pedal key, the reed switch is activated
by the magnet at the end of the key.
Your new organ has lighting above the pedalboard which is switched on and off automatically
with the organ.
The following points are important for installing the pedalboard:
1. Make sure that the surface under the console in combination with the pedalboard is flat.
2. For the best alignment of the pedalboard, it may be necessary to adjust the console height
slightly while positioning the pedalboard.
3. Shift the pedalboard against the black painted front panel as close as possible.

The organ bench

Your organ is provided with a bench that contains a music shelf. If you wish, you can order an
adjustable-height bench.
