OWNER'S MANUAL

q

Cymbal Support Plate

To install the bottom hi-hat cymbal, remove the hi-hat clutch assembly and
place the cymbal on the felt washer on the cymbal support plate. The angle of
the bottom cymbal can be adjusted by turning the angle bolt on the underside
of the support plate.
To adjust the angle of the hi-hat cymbal, use the Knob Bolt located on the
underside of the cymbal support.

w

Hi-Hat Clutch

To install the top hi-hat cymbal, loosen the wing bolt and remove the
entire hi-hat clutch assembly from the upper pull rod. Next, remove
the clutch nut and position the cymbal between the two clutch felts.
After installation, tighten the clutch nut on to the clutch assembly to
secure the cymbal. Place the entire assembly onto the hi hat upper
pull rod and tighten the wing bolt to secure the desired position of the
top cymbal.
The lock nuts on the top of the clutch can adjust the feel and sound of
the hi hat cymbals. To obtain a loose sound, open the nuts off of the
felt; for a tight sound, close the nuts onto the felt. Once the desired
sound has been obtained, tighten firmly the lock nuts onto each other.

e

Position Clamp

Once the bottom hi-hat cymbal height has been decided, the position
clamp can be used to mark the settings for future set ups and to
prevent unintentional changes during musical performances. Use a
drum key to firmly tighten the position clamp into place.

r

Footboard Stabilizer Rod

The Footboard stabilizer rod should attach to holes in the frame at the
bottom of the hi-hat base.

t

Spur

The large heavy-duty rubber feet prevent unwanted movement of the
hi-hat stand during playing conditions.
To minimize slippage further, there are two spurs in the frame.
These spurs can be extended as needed by adjusting the turn screws
provided on either side of the frame base.

Note:

To maintain smooth action, occasionally apply some grease-grade
oil to all of the moving parts.
Be careful not to use excessive force when tightening the extender
base nut as this may damage the nylon bushing inside the tube.
