*  Be careful not to pinch your fi ngers when setting up or folding up the stand.
*  Do not adjust the height of the stand while a keyboard is mounted on it.
*  Avoid inserting fi ngers into any of the holes in the stand. Otherwise, you risk injury.
*  Before using the stand, make sure that the inner legs are locked. If the inner legs are not 

locked, you risk injury as the result of the keyboard falling from the stand.

*  Use the cable holder to manage the cables that are connected to the keyboard.
*  Do not move the stand with the keyboard resting on it. Doing so may cause the keyboard 

to overturn or fall.

Do not open or perform any internal modifi cations on the stand. (The only 
exception would be where this manual provides specifi c instructions which 
should be followed in order to put in place user–installable options.)

Do not attempt to repair the stand, or replace parts within it (except when this 
manual provides specifi c instructions directing you to do so). Refer all servicing 
to your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland 
distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.

Never install the stand in any of the following locations.
•  Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, 

near a heating duct, on top of heat-generating equipment); or are

•  Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet fl oors); or are
•  Exposed to steam or smoke; or are
•  Subject to salt exposure; or are
•  Humid; or are
•  Exposed to rain; or are
•  Dusty or sandy; or are
•  Subject to high levels of vibration and shakiness.

Make sure you always have the stand placed so it is level and sure to remain 
stable. Never place it on stands that could wobble, or on inclined surfaces.

In households with small children, an adult should provide supervision until the 
child is capable of following all the rules essential for the safe operation of the 
stand.

Protect the stand from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)

This stand for use only with specifi c Roland musical instruments. Use with 

other models is capable of resulting in instability causing possible injury. See 
apparatus instructions. 

Even if you observe the cautions given in the owner’s manual, certain types of 
handling may allow the keyboard to fall from the stand, or cause the stand to 
overturn. Please be mindful of any safety issues before using the keyboard.

Never climb on top of the stand.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Placement

•  Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on which you place the 

stand, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. You can place a piece of felt 
or cloth under the rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please 
make sure that the stand will not slip or move accidentally.

Maintenance

•  For everyday cleaning wipe the stand with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been 

slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated 
with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the stand 
thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.

•  Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility 

of discoloration and/or deformation.

Additional Precautions

•  In the interest of product improvement, the specifi cations and/or appearance of 

this stand are subject to change without prior notice.
