ation, sagging, fraying, tearing, or scraping appears. For information on replacement parts, contact your dealer or qualified
Yamaha service personnel.

Adjust the head tension.
Refer to the “Adjusting the Head Tension” (on page 12).

The head replacement is now complete.
Replacing the Head
• Do not touch the sensor unit, to avoid causing damage to the parts.
• If the kick pad is used without a patch, the head and beater will wear out faster and may cause damage.
