About the Icons
: This icon indicates points which should be paid attention to.
: This icon indicates actions that are prohibited.
Caution
Disobeying the points indicated with this mark may lead to
damage or injury.
In regards to brass instruments with a plate finish, the color of the finish may change over time however, it should be
of no concern in regards to the instrument’s performance. Discoloration in its early stage can easily be removed with
maintenance. (As discoloration progresses, it may be difficult to remove.)
* Please use the accessories that are specified for use with the particular type of finish found on the instrument. Also, metal polishes
remove a thin layer of the finish’s top coat which will make the finish thinner. Please be aware of this before using polish.
Some instruments are shipped with a black cap attached to the end of
the 3rd valve slide ring (
A
in the diagram) to prevent the ring from be-
ing lost during shipping.
The cap can be removed before you start playing, but leaving it in place
will not affect the operation of the instrument.
