- disassembly of the instrument mechanics
- displacement of clearance in the mechanics using jigs (special tools)
- displacement of clearance of axes in the posts
- removal of old pads and base material
- for oboe and English horn, unscrewing the adjusting screws
- preparation for galvanizing, sanding, polishing, repairing the surface of keys
- galvanization (silvering, gilding, nickel plating, rhodium plating)
- wood cleaning and impregnation

- new corks on pins
- removal of deposits from the bottom of the tone holes
- putting into operation the mechanics on axes
- gluing new base material and pads to the mechanics
