body at its uppermost point, and the footjoint
by its lowest point, and attach the footjoint to
the body.

If you experience difficulty, hold the body in
the middle and try to attach it again.

Attach the U-joint to the main body. Align the
U-joint so that it is positioned slightly to the
left of the keys when looking at the keys from
directly above. Next, rotate the headjoint and
adjust the position (angle) of the embouchure
hole so that it aligns with your mouth.
* If you experience difficulty attaching the
joint sections, use a cloth or gauze to wipe
off any grime and try again.
For the bass flute, the next step is to attach the
hand rest to the instrument at a comfortable
angle.
* Take care not to tighten the handle too
firmly.
