Mounting snare and tom pads
Mounting the snare pad
1.
Attach the clamp bolt to the snare pad and provi-
sionally tighten (by 5 or 6 turns).
2.
Mount the snare pad on the rack’s clamp rod. As
shown below, ensure that the rod section is fully in-
serted into the pad’s mounting hole, and then fully
tighten the clamp bolt.
3.
If necessary, use clamp bolts A to E to adjust the
height and angle of the snare pad. When doing so,
be sure to adjust one bolt at a time (i.e., loosen a
bolt, adjust the pad, and then retighten before loos-
ening another).
Mounting the tom pad
1.
As with the snare pad, attach the clamp bolt to each
of the three tom pads and provisionally tighten (by 5
or 6 turns).
2.
Mount the three tom pads on the rack’s clamp rods.
As shown below, ensure that the rod section is fully
inserted into each pad’s mounting hole, and then
fully tighten the clamp bolt.
3.
If necessary, use clamp bolts A to D to adjust the
height and angle of any of the pads. When doing so,
be sure to adjust one bolt at a time (i.e., loosen a
bolt, adjust the pad, and then retighten before loos-
ening another).

Mounting the drum trigger module, cymbal pads, and hi-hat pad
Mounting the drum trigger module
1.
Attach the module stand (provided) to the underside
of the drum trigger module using the module stand
fastening screws.
2.
Place the module stand inside the holder clamp and
tighten the clamp bolt to secure in position.
Mounting the cymbal pads
1.
Using a tuning key, loosen the stopper’s key bolt.
2.
Remove the wing nut, the two felt pads, and the bolt
cover from the cymbal holder.
3.
Place the stopper on the cymbal holder.
* If the key bolt was not sufficiently loosened in
Step 1 above, it may not be possible to pass the
stopper over the cymbal holder’s shaft. In such a
case, loosen the key bolt as much as possible
without removing it.
4.
Replace the bolt cover.
* When assembling the bolt cover, turn until it no
longer rotates.
5.
Secure the stopper in place. With the stopper mak-
ing full contact with the bottom surface of the bolt
cover, tighten the stopper’s key bolt using a tuning
key.
6.
Place one of the felt pads removed in Step 2 on the
cymbal holder.
7.
Mount the pad unit on the cymbal stand. Lower the
pad unit into place with the cymbal holder’s shaft
passing through the central hole of the cup section.
When mounted, the stopper’s pin should rest inside
the pad unit’s smaller hole.
* If you were to play a cymbal pad without the stop-
per’s pin positioned inside the smaller hole, the
pad could rotate, causing the cable to be pulled
out. It is very important, therefore, to ensure that
the stopper is secured as described in Step 5
above.
8.
Assemble the felt pad that came with your pad unit.
* The second felt pad removed from the cymbal
holder in Step 2 above is not required for assem-
bly of your pad unit.
9.
Tighten the wing nut to secure the pad unit to the
cymbal holder.

Position the kick pad as desired, referring to the standard assembly example on the other side.
Before starting assembly, lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor. Alternatively, you can place the packages' cardboard
boxes on the floor under the kick pad to protect it from damage.
Connect the pads to the drum trigger module.
As described below, connect the output of each pad to the corresponding trigger input jack on the drum trigger module.
Connect the drum trigger module to a power supply.
This completes the assembly procedure.
* For information about tuning the power on/off, checking the actual sound, and other subsequent steps,
refer to the Setting Up section of the owner’s manual that came with your drum trigger module.
Assembling the kick pad
1.
If a drum mat (sold separately) is not available, lay a sheet of cardboard on the
floor to protect it from scratching.
2.
Remove the wing bolts, spring washers, and washers from the kick pad frame,
and line up each set nearby in the order in which it was removed.
3.
Join the base section to the frame as shown right, and then secure it in place by
assembling the wing bolts, spring washers, and washers removed in the previous
step from the base side.

1.
Insert the 9-channel snake cable’s straight plugs into the drum trigger module’s
trigger input jacks ([

] and [HI-HAT CONTROL]).
• If you are using the standard setup, the stickers on each of the snake cable’s
plugs will indicate the name of the corresponding pad.
2.
Plug the 9-channel snake cable’s L-shaped plugs into the correct pads.
3.
In the case of snare and tom pads, wrap the cables around the cable clips to pre-
vent them from being pulled out.
Excessive bending can damage the pad cables. Ensure, there-
fore, that these cables are not bent at an extreme angle when
wrapped around the clips.
