Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical
shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the
following:
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or
radiators. Also, do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord,
or place heavy objects on it.
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The
required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Use the specified adaptor (page 64) only. Using the wrong adaptor can
result in damage to the instrument or overheating.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which
may have accumulated on it.
• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or
wet conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or

Handling caution
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage
to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multipleconnector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly
cause overheating in the outlet.
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet,
always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can
damage it.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to
be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
• Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly
process. Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence
might result in damage to the instrument or even injury.
• Do not place hands or feet under a foot switch or foot pedal. Doing so
could result in injury.
• Do not use the electronic drum kit’s rack to hold acoustic drums. Doing
so could cause clamps to break and the drums to fall off, which in turn
could lead to injury.
• Mind your fingers when adjusting clamps. Fingers can easily be caught
and crushed if care is not taken during this operation.
• Be careful with the tips of supports, arms, screws, and the like. Fingers
can easily be injured by sharp tips if these components are not handled
carefully.
• Do not sit or stand on the rack. Doing so could cause it to fall over or
break, possibly causing injury.
• Be careful with the holders for cymbal and tom pads as they have sharp
tips. In order to avoid injury, therefore, you should take special care
whenever handling these components.
• Be careful with the anti-slip stoppers on kick pads and foot pedals as
they have sharp tips. In order to avoid injury, therefore, you should take
special care whenever handling these components.
• Securely tighten fixing nuts and other fasteners. In addition, be sure to
immediately tighten any nuts that have come loose. If this precaution is
not observed, pads may fall off or the rack may collapse or fall over,
possibly causing injury.
• Take care when setting up cables. If anyone were to trip on a cable, the
instrument could topple over and cause injury.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might
accidentally fall over.
• The flooring material (wooden floor, etc.) may be damaged if the
instrument is placed directly on the floor. We recommend that you
place it on carpet or the like.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent
damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are
using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs,
immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the
outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still
flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using
the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from
the wall AC outlet.
• Use only the stand/rack specified for the instrument. When attaching it,
use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to
the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn
off the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for
all components, set all volume levels to minimum.
• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels
and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to
set the desired listening level.
• Avoid contact with grease. Grease is applied to pedals as a lubricant,
which may attach to your clothes when carrying or setting up them.
• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on
the panel. This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to
the instrument or other property, or operational failure.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument,
and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of
time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause
permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing
in the ears, consult a physician.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (all lamps are off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.
When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow
the notices below.
Handling and Maintenance
• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio,
stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric
devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may
generate noise. When you use the instrument along
with an application on your smart device, we recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON” on that
device in order to avoid noise caused by communication.
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or
vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct
sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to
prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration, damage
to the internal components or unstable operation.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the
instrument, since this might discolor the panel.
Maintenance
• When cleaning the drum module, use a soft and dry/
slightly damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, alcohol, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
• When cleaning the pads, avoid cleaning products that
contain organic solvents, paint thinner, and alcohol as
they can cause discoloration and/or warping. Instead,
we recommend that you remove dust using a soft dry
cloth or wipe clean with a moist, tightly-wrung-out
cloth. If a pad is very dirty, wipe the dirt away using a
cloth moistened with a neutral detergent solution and
tightly wrung out. Following this, wipe away the detergent solution using a cloth soaked in water and tightly
wrung out.

Assembly Guide
Assembling the kick pad
1. Remove the four wing bolts, spring washers, and flat washers from the kick pad, and arrange each set
nearby in the disassembled condition.
2. Assemble the base to the kick pad as shown below, and then from the base side, assemble the wing
bolts, spring washers, and flat washers removed in
Step 1 in order to secure it in place.
3. Insert the connecting rods into the holes in the holder of the foot pedal as shown below.
4. Slide the beater into the hole until the tip protrudes approximately 15 mm from the rear, and then tighten the beater bolt
using the drum key.
5. Turn the foot pedal’s T-bolt counter-clockwise to loosen it.
6. Fit the raised section at the front of the kick pad holder into the foot-pedal’s assembly bracket.
7. Turn the foot pedal’s T-bolt clock wise to secure the parts together.
8. Operate the pedal and confirm whether the beater head strikes the kick pad near the center. If not, adjust the length of the
beater or move it left or right as required.

1. Insert the mini plugs* at one end of the nine-channel snake cable into the correct trigger input jacks (SNARE to KICK/
PAD) on the drum module. (*: The smaller set of plugs.)
The sticker on each of the snake cable’s plugs indicates the name of the corresponding pad.
2. Insert the nine-channel snake cable’s standard plugs* into the jacks in the corresponding pads. (*: The larger set of plugs.)
For the kick pad KP65 in the DTX432K and DTX452K, use the OUT>DTX jack. No sound will be played when the PAD>IN jack is
used.
3. Wrap the cables for the snare pads, the tom pads, and the cymbal/hi-hat pads around the cable clips to prevent them from
being pulled out.
Excessive bending can damage the cables. Ensure, therefore, that they are not bent at an extreme angle when wrapped around the
clips.
4. Using the cable bands, secure the cables to the kit rack at the positions in the figure above.
Congratulations—You have finished assembling your electronic drum kit!
