Injury or handicaps to persons caused by the disregard of
Caution
If the instrument is often moved, bolts, parts, etc., may become loose. After moving the instrument, check and make
sure all bolts, parts, etc., are firmly fastened. Firmly tighten all loose items.
Do not use the mallets for any purpose other than playing the instrument.
Doing so can result in injury or accident. Do not allow children to hit others, etc., or any other dangerous behavior.
Take care not to pinch your hands during assembly.
Frame and leg sections in particular, should be assembled by two persons working carefully.
When assembling/disassembling the instrument, make sure to follow the procedure outlined in this manual. Assembly
in the wrong order can cause the pipes to drop which may result in an injury, impair the performance functionality of
the instrument or cause noise.
After final adjustment of the legs the fixing screws must be tightened securely to prevent loosening. Looseness may
cause the instrument to shift during performance and can also cause noise and other problems. Retighten the screws
from time to time.
warnings with this mark or, misuse of the instrument, may
result in the loss of personal property.
To get the most out of your instrument
Please read the following instructions carefully before using your glockenspiel.
Installation Location
◆
Use or storage in the following locations may cause
damage, even when packaged.
• In direct sunlight, such as near a window, or in a
closed vehicle in daytime.
• Near heating devices or in other locations subject to
excessive heat.
• In excessively cold environment.
• In places with excessive humidity or dust.
• Locations subject to vibrations.
Handling
◆
• Placing objects on or leaning against the instrument
can damage the tone bars or the side frame. This
can also lead to the instrument falling over, etc. as
described in the “Precautions” section. Never do this
as it is very dangerous.
• Do not use the glockenspiel’s mallets on a vibraphone, metallophone, etc. It can dent the tone bars
or cause damage, which can result in poor pitch.
Transporting the Instrument
◆
• When transporting the disassembled instrument,
remove the tone bars and resonator pipes from the
glockenspiel and wrap them in a soft blanket, etc.
for transport.
• When moving the instrument with its casters, make
sure you adjust the instrument’s height to its lowest
level. This puts the instrument’s center of gravity at
a lower point for greater stability while moving.
• The instrument is sensitive to impacts. Treat the
instrument with care when moving. Never drop or
throw the instrument.
• If it is necessary to lift the instrument while moving
it, always do so with at least two persons and using
both hands to hold the side frames or legs. The instrument weighs about 36 kilograms.
Maintenance
◆
• The tone bars should be polished from time to time
using a soft and dry cloth. Never use thinner or benzene or a wet cloth for cleaning purpose.
Keep This Manual for Future Reference
◆
• After reading, make sure to keep the manual in a
safe place.

Precautions for handling gas spring
Please observe the following instructions for proper handling of the gas spring.
1. Precautions for handling the gas spring
This gas spring requires no oil supply to its sliding
section. Additional oil will reduce the sealing durability and cause the oil to leak.
Never apply any impact to the gas spring. It will
cause oil leakage, malfunction or breakage.
Never disassemble the gas spring. As a high pressure gas is sealed in it, disassembling it will cause a
high risk.
Note that there is not much rigidity in the bending direction. Depending on accuracy in its installation, the
bending load will cause the rod to bend, resulting in
malfunction.
Do not apply a high tensile load to the gas spring as it will cause damage to the gas spring.
●
In the event of a failure, stop using the instrument and contact the shop of its purchase. If your dealer
●
Note that a nick on the piston rod or cylinder will
shorten the service life of the sealing or cause a
malfunction.
Do not expose the gas spring to an excessively
high or low temperature. The allowable temperature
range for use is -20°C to 80°C.
Avoid using the instrument where it is exposed to to
rain, water or much dust.
Do not apply an excessive force to lift the frame end
and pull off the gas spring from the leg.
Caution
is unable to assist you, please contact Yamaha directly.
2. Instructions for discarding the gas spring
Make sure to observe the following instructions when discarding the gas spring.
As pressurized nitrogen gas is sealed in the gas spring, be sure to release before discarding it. Or an explosion may occur, causing an injury.
Danger
[PRECAUTIONS]
A. Do not crash.
B. Do not cut.

Holding down both low and high register side side frames, loosen the slide guide fixing bolts.
After adjusting the instrument to a comfortable height, tighten the slide guide fixing bolts to secure.
Use the guide lines on the slide legs as a reference and adjust the height so that the instrument’s
playing surface is parallel to the floor.
A gas spring system is incorporated into one of the legs on the high register end, and another leg
on the low register end. When the slide guide fixing bolts are loosened on the low register side,
the side attached to the leg without the gas spring may slightly lower (diagram A) however, this is
not a sign of any problem. When adjusting instrument height, slightly lift up on the side that is not
equipped with the gas spring.
After assembly is complete, make sure all nuts and bolts are tightened firmly.
