Make sure the pinning screws (for the low B touch and foot) are tight, though be careful you don't over-torque them as the heads can break off. Use a very thin tipped screwdriver for these. And check the pinning screws on the C# key as well (one for the head and two for the pad cup).

The threads are 12BA on the pinning screws as are the flat spring screws - all other screw threads are M2x0.4 (except for the wood screws which have a coarse thread, and the Eb master spring screw is a small coarse threaded screw).
