The pedals are L-R:
Bassoon stop, Moderator, 'una corda', Sustain
The 'bassoon' is a small roll of parchment that can be put onto the base strings so giving a simulated buzzing tone. The 'moderator' interposes a thin felt layer to reduce
note volume, The 'uc' shifts the hammers to the left so only one string is struck, the sustain is as on a modern piano, the dampers stay up while the pedal is pushed.
I have to confess that some of these don't work at all or well due to construction errors I made through lack of experience at the time.
