onto the power base, engaging the
power base hook with the back of the
drum.
4. Lower the front of the drum onto the
power base.
5. Slide the drum lock from left to right to
securely lock the drum in place.
note:
This will allow the drum and power
base to create and maintain the proper

been moved to the locked position. If the
drum has not been seated properly on
the power base, this lock will not engage
properly and the power switch may not
operate.
