PRECAUTIONS
Please read the following instructions carefully before using your marimbas.
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
◆
• Never place an object on or lean against the instrument, as this may cause damage to the tone bars
and frame parts or topple the instrument, which is
extremely dangerous.
• Do not use hand orchestra bell mallets or other hard
objects on your marimbas. The resulting dents or
scratches in the tone bars could impair the sound.
(Wood tone bars)
Also avoid hitting the tone bars hard with a hard mal-
let. The tone bars can crack. (Acoustalon tone bars)
Moving and Transporting the Instrument
◆
• Before moving the instrument, make sure that the
caster brakes are released. Also make sure to lift the
instrument slightly when moving over rough surfaces.
• When the instrument must be transported to a different location, disassemble it to the same state as
when it was purchased (see page 26), taking care to
pack each component properly. Disassembly steps
are in the opposite order of assembly.
When Not in Use
◆
• Always engage the caster brakes.
Maintenance
◆
• The tone bars should be polished from time to time
using a soft and dry cloth or silicone cloth. Stains that
cannot be removed with a dry cloth may be wiped
off using a small amount of ethyl alcohol. Never use
thinner or benzene or a wet cloth for cleaning purplses.
Keep This Manual for Future Reference
◆
• After reading, make sure to keep the manual in a
safe place.
Assembly Cautions
• When assembling/disassembling the instr u-
ment, do so with at least two persons and follow
the instructions 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.
• Adjusting the playing height (see page 32) on
the YM-410/410F/460/460F/2400/2400R
should be done with at least two persons.
• Aft er final a dju stment of the legs t he 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.

Thank you for purchasing a YAMAHA concert marimbas.
Exhaustive research by Yamaha technicians and craftsmen focusing
on tone quality and playability, has led to the design and creation of
these marimbas, using select, high quality materials, and Yamaha’s
original FRP Acoustalon. We are convinced that you will enjoy playing your instrument that produces spreading and yet deep sounds as
well as rich volume to your content.
This manual describes proper use of YAMAHA concert marimbas.
Please read it thoroughly to ensure that your instrument will give you
enjoyment for a long time.
Yamaha Concert Marimba Features
1. High-Quality Tone Bars
Tone bars are made of rosewood, which delivers an
ideal marimba tone and timbre, and African padauk,
which offers a rich sound that is soft and deep. After
allowing the woods to dry naturally over time, only
the finest select pieces are selected for use in making the tone bars.
Type F models use Yamaha’s FRP Acoustalon tone
bars that have a unique semi-hollow design. These
bars deliver a clear sound that is extremely close to
the sound produced by high-quality rosewood. It offers excellent projection, and full volume. Compared
to wood tone bars, Acoustalon is highly weather resistant, being little affected by changes in temperature and humidity, which can alter the pitch.
2. Fine Tuning
Tone bars are tuned by the highly refined ears and
skills of our technicians and precision strobe tuners
in an environmentally controlled room in which both
temperature and humidity are kept constant. Precise
tuning of the harmonic overtones, which determine
timbre, results in stable pitch and tone without any
unevenness.
3. Easy Assembly/Disassembly
The instrument is designed to offer easy assembly
and disassembly to provide convenient storing and
transport. The YM-460/460F/410D/46/2400/2400R
utilize folding designs with two-section frames and
pipes to provide the ut most in co mpact convenience.
4. Height Adjustment
(YM-460/460F/410/410F/2400/2400R)
Height adjustable models offer smooth height ad-
justment. Locking screws fit into channels on leg
pipes to eliminate slippage ad looseness.
The YM-4 60/460F/24 00/2400R of fers a 5 -st ep
height adjustment that goes from 89cm at its lowest position, to 97cm at its highest. Since the YM410/410F is adjustable in 7-steps, from 76cm to
88cm, it promotes proper playing posture from children to adults.
5. Large Casters
Lar ge 100 mm-di ameter casters offer smoother
transport. (YM-46 and 41 utilize 75mm-diameter
casters).
6. 3-Step Height Adjustment for Resonator
Pipes
Resonator height can be adjusted in 3-steps to
avoid loss of ideal resonance due to temperature
changes. (The YM-41 only provides 2-step adjustment.)
