*  Do not spread open the stand farther than 135 degrees as shown in the illustration. 

Nor should you spread the stand wider than 1.2 meters (48 inches).

Tighten the wing nut to 

obtain an appropriate 

amount of sway.

Attach the stopper so 

that the bolt is on the 

right-hand side, from the

These sections provide important information concerning the proper operation of the unit. Additionally, in order

01

KD-9 (Kick)

02

Position the beater so that it strikes 

the center of the head, then secure the 

kick pedal and KD-9 firmly in place.

NOTE

*  Install the kick pedal securely.
*  Take care not to pinch your fingers.
*  Depending on how you’re using the unit, 

the bolts that attach the pedal to the plate 
could become loose, causing the pedal to 
rattle during performance.  
In such cases, use commercially available 
tools to tighten the bolts.

Adjusting the Anchor Bolts.

When using the kick pedal on a carpet or on a 

drum mat (TDM series), the slip-prevention tape 

that’s on the base should prevent the KD-9 from 

moving around.

However, if that’s not enough to keep the KD-9 

in a fixed position, you can adjust things so that 

the tips of the anchor bolts protrude through the 

base. That should keep it in place and make it 

easier for you to play.

When Using a Twin Pedal

Position the two beaters equally apart from the center of the pad as 

shown in the figure at left. If one of the beater is further away from 

the center than the other, the sound from the further beater will be 

lower in volume, or will not sound as desired.

Using a twin pedal will result in lower sensitivity as compared to when 

a single pedal is used. Raise the sensitivity on the sound module.

For details, see “Setting the Pad Sensitivity [F2] (BASIC)” in the owner’s 

manual.

NOTE

*  When used on flooring, the anchor bolts 

may damage the floor. Adjust the anchor 
bolts correctly.

*  The tips of the anchor bolts are sharp. 

Handle with care

When using on 

the floor

*  A variety of commercially available beaters 

can be used, including felt, plastic, or 
wood types. 
However if a felt beater is used, the felt 
may leave marks on the striking surface.

*  Fasten the cables so that they will not obstruct your playing; use cable clips 

at locations marked  , and cable ties at locations marked  . 
Make sure to wrap the cable ties around the pipes.

*  The tip of the mount is sharp. Handle it with care.
*  When setting up or storing the stand, be careful not to pinch the fingers you use to 

handle the stand.

Check to be sure they’re making contact with the floor
