Process
1
If too much tension is applied by the fine tuner compared to the tension rods,
the pedal resistance is high. This occurs when the fine tuner is in the highest
mechanical position. In this position, the player can only use the fine tuner to
lower the tone.
Move the fine tuner to the middle of the range.
The fundamental tone must now be tuned higher. Correct the fundamental
tone with the tension rods as described on page 5.

Maintenance
As the head stretches, it is important to correct the fundamental tone with the tension rods. It is faster to make this adjustment with the fine tuner, but doing this
will eventually move the fine tuner to the end of its mechanical range and negatively affect pedal performance.
