ATTACHING THE TREMOLO ARM
1
The tremolo arm employs a snap-in/snap-out design. Hold the corner of
the tremolo arm, and press it fi rmly into the arm socket of the base plate.
※ The tremolo arm of the EDGE III Herman Li Ver. installed on the EGEN8 is a
screw-in type.
After inserting the tremolo arm into the arm socket, rotate it to fasten it in
place.
2
To adjust the tightness of the tremolo arm, use an Allen wrench (2 mm) to adjust the
torque adjustment screw via the adjustment hole on the side of the tremolo block.
Tightening the torque adjustment screw clockwise will make the tremolo arm
tighter; loosing the screw will make the arm looser.
3
To adjust the height of the tremolo arm, remove the tremolo spring cover on the back
of the guitar and use an Allen wrench (3 mm) to turn the height adjustment screws
located on the bottom of the tremolo block. Tightening the screws clockwise will
increase the height.
Memo
In addition to the one described above, the tremolo arm also has a torque adjustment screw located at •
the bottom of the tremolo block.
The torque adjustment screw at the bottom of the tremolo block is already adjusted when the guitar is
shipped from the factory; if it should require adjustment, remove the tremolo unit from the guitar and
then adjust the screw.
Before attaching the tremolo arm, make sure that the torque adjustment screw has not come loose or fallen out.
