TDM-20/TDM-10 Owner’s Manual
USING THE UNIT SAFELY
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland V-Drums Setting Mat TDM-20/TDM-10.
Before using this mat, carefully read the sections entitled: “USING THE MAT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT
NOTES” (this page). These sections provide important information concerning the proper operation of
the mat. Additionally, in order to feel assured that you have gained a good grasp of every feature
provided by your new mat, Owner’s manual should be read in its entirety. The manual should be saved
and kept on hand as a convenient reference.
Setting Up
• Place the mat as shown in the figure, with the Roland logo behind and to the right of the drum set.
• If kick pedal slippage is a concern, attach the hook side of Velcro or other hook-and-loop fastener tape
(commercially available) to the underside of the kick pedal. This should help secure the kick pedal.
* Ensure that the spike of the kick trigger pad does not extend more than 5 mm from the rubber foot. Use with the spikes
extending more than 5 mm allows the spikes to penetrate the mat and damage flooring.
