Precautions When Installing the Equipment
CAUTION
WARNING
Make sure screws are tightened securely.
Screws should be tightened securely to keep the equipment from falling
over or dropping during performance. On models where gears are used
for angle adjustments, make sure the gears are meshed before securing
them. Applying excessive force without the gears being meshed properly
could result in vibration during performance which could cause the
cymbals or any other equipment to fall from their stands.
CAUTION
Be careful not to scratch or damage the floor surface.
The b ass drum spurs, hi-hat st and s, and bass d rum pe dal s have
shar p e n e d a n c h o r s w h i c h prev e n t th e m f rom s l i p p i n g d u r i n g
performance. Handle these carfully when setting up the equipment, in
order to avoid injury. Also, the rubber tips used on the stands and on the
legs of the bass drum and the floor tom may cause
discoloration of the floor surface if left in place for
long periods of time. We recommend installing the
drum set on a thick carpet or a specially designed
drum mat in order t o avoid damage to the floor
surface, the carpet, and other flooring.
Make sure the equipment cannot fall over.
The dr um hardwa re is s upporte d by means o f a
tripod. When installing the drum set, make sure the
legs of the tripod are opened wide enough to keep
the equipment from falling over. With a boom stand,
if the boom section is being used in the extended
position, one of the tripod legs should be extended
in the same direction as the boom section, for added
stab ility. If you are using clamps on th e c ymbal
stands and attaching tomtoms, the tom-toms should
be set up with one leg extended directly upwards,
for added stability.
Precautions When Handling the Equipment
WARNING
Do not use the equipment for any purpose other than
performance.
The individual drums, as well as the stands and other a ccessories,
contain many metal parts. The stands are particularly heavy, and can be
dangerous if used for anything other than the intended purpose.
Do not allow children or others to play near a drum set.
Numerous stands are set up around a drum set. Children or o thers
playing near a drum set are at risk for bumping into the components
of the drum set or tripping and falling over them. Please be particularly
careful not to allow children to play near a drum set.
Stay away from the drum set if an earthquake occurs.
A strong vibration such as an earthquake can cause the drum set to shift
or fall over. If an earthquake should occur, be sure to stay well clear of
the drum set.
Never use drum sticks for anything other than playing the
drums.
Drum sticks and wire brushes are intended for playing the drums. Never hit
people with them or throw them at people. This can be extremely dangerous.
Be careful of broken drum sticks.
Drum sticks are made of wood. If they break while you are performing,
fragments and splinters can go flying, possibly causing injury.

Be careful not to bother others.
Playing the drum set produces a lot of loud sounds and vibration. Be careful to
arrange practice times so as not to bother others nearby.
Be careful of oil on screws and bolts.
The screw s in the ma in unit an d t he stand s are lubr icated w ith grease . W hen
transporting or setting up the equipment, be careful not to get grease on your clothing.
Watch out for rust and deterioration of metal parts.
Metal parts become rusty and scratched through use. Be careful not to scratch
yourself on a rusted or scratched part. Do not operate a drum pedal or hi-hat stand
pedal with your bare feet.
Always support the upper part of a tom holder or stand when
adjusting it.
Loosening a screw too quickly when adjusting the height or angle of a tom-tom or a
cymbal may allow the tom or cymbal to fall, pinching or injuring your fingers. Use one
hand to securely support the tom-tom or tilter while you loosen the screw with care.
Be careful when folding up the tripods.
When storing the tripods of stands and other equipment, be careful not to let your
fingers get pinched or caught.
Do not put fingers or other objects into pipes.
Wh en rem oving p ipe s fo r st orag e or when s etti ng up t he
equipment, your fingers could be injured if you put them into
the pipes. Never put your fingers into pipes unless absolutely
necessary, and then be extremely careful.
Slide
Be careful of the projecting parts of stands.
Stands have a lot of protruding parts such as screws and boom arms.
When setting up the equipment, be careful not to bump these projecting parts with
your face or head, to avoid injury.
Never stand on the drum chair or use it as a stepping stool.
Standing on the drum chair or using it as a stepping stool could cause it to fall over
or break. Never use the drum chair for anything other than its designated purpose,
which is for sitting while playing.
Do not sit on the drum seat when adjusting its height.
Adjusting the height of the drum seat while sitting on it can cause accidents such as
pinched fingers or the seat dropping suddenly, causing back injuries. When adjusting
the height, always stand up from the seat.
Be careful of snappy wires suddenly giving way.
The snappy wires (resonating wires) on the back of the
snare drum are consumable items and wear out over
time. If a wire comes loose at one end and is left hanging,
it can prick your fingers or snap into your eye when you
are moving or setting up the equipment. Use nippers or
another tool to cut off protruding wires, and replace them
with new ones as quickly as possible.

Precautions Regarding Storage
NOTE
Avoid locations with high temperatures and high humidity.
Leaving the drum set in a car, or in a place where it is exposed to direct sunlight for a
long period of time, can cause the covering sheet to come loose, or the plywood on
the drum shell to come off. In order to maintain the superior performance of the drum
set, store it carefully in a safe place.
Metal parts should be wiped with a dry cloth from time to time.
To prevent rust, metal parts of the drums and stands should be wiped with a dry
cloth from time to time.
