Now that we've tuned our bass drum, it's time to mount the bass drum pedal and the
tom racks on the bass drum shell. Let's start with the bass drum legs. The bass drum
spurs are inserted into the openings provided on the left and right sides of the bass
drum. The further the bass drum spurs are inserted, the smaller the distance between
the floor and the lower edge of the clamping rings. Let's set the bass drum spurs so
long that the distance is a finger's width. The drum shell should not lean forward or
towards the player. The bass drum spurs are locked with the screw.
Now you can push the assembled bass drum pedal onto the clamping ring and fix it
with the claw. Use some gaffa tape to protect the hoop from scratching.
Now, there's only the tom racks. There are different designs. The tom holder – that's
the clamp for the tom arms on the bass drum – is intended for one or two tom arms.
This means that if only one tube fits in, there is an adapter for both tom arms. Our
tom holder takes both tom arms directly.
