Assembling the snare and tom pads TP70 tom pads 2. Attach the XP80 snare pad to the rod, and then tighten the clamp bolt to secure the snare pad. Rod section XP80 snare pad XP80 snare pad  Snare pad 1. Attach a clamp bolt to the snare pad and provisionally tighten (by five or six turns). Clamp bolt (tighten in the direction of the arrow) XP80 snare pad (rear side) Insert Clamp bolt NOTICE Leave a gap of about a half inch between the base of the rod and the snare pad. Contact between the rod section and snare pad may cause damage to the pad. 3. Loosen bolts A to D as shown below to adjust the height and angle of the snare pad. When correctly positioned, be sure to securely retighten the bolts before proceeding to the next step. Bolt B Bolt D Bolt C Bolt A  Tom pads 1. As with the snare pad, attach a wing bolt to each of the three tom pads and provisionally tighten (by five or six turns). 2. Push each of the tom pads onto one of the rack's tom holders. Each time, ensure that the tom holder's rod is fully inserted into the tom pad's mounting hole, and then tighten the bolt to secure the pad in place.

Hi-hat pad: Has neither sticker nor bumps. Crash cymbal pad Sensor (bumps)  Drum trigger module 1. Secure the module holder to the bottom of the drum trigger module using the module holder screws. Module holder screw (×4) Module holder Drum trigger module (rear side) 2. Push the module holder into the holder clamp and tighten the clamp bolt to secure it in place. Cymbal holder 3. Place the stopper on the cymbal holder. * If the key bolt was not sufficiently loosened in Step 1 above, it may not be possible to pass the stopper over the cymbal holder's shaft. In such a case, loosen the key bolt as much as possible without removing it. 4. Replace the bolt cover. * Turn the bolt cover to tighten it onto the threaded section and firmly secure it in place. Bolt cover Stopper Threaded section Cymbal holder 5. With the stopper making full contact with the bottom surface of the bolt cover as shown below, tighten the stopper's key bolt using the drum key. Drum key Bolt cover 6. Place one of the felt pads removed in Step 2 on the cymbal holder. 7. Mount the pad on the cymbal stand. Lower the pad into place with the cymbal holder's shaft passing through the central hole. When mounted, the stopper's pin should rest inside the pad's smaller hole. * If you were to play your cymbal pad without the stopper's pin positioned well inside the smaller hole, the pad could rotate, causing the pin to be pulled out. It is very important, therefore, to ensure that the stopper is secured as shown in Step 5 above. 8. Assemble the other felt pad removed in Step 2 to the cymbal holder. 9. Tighten the wing nut to secure the pad to the cymbal holder.

Adjust the height, angle and orientation of the cymbal pad and hi-hat pad to a position where you can hit around the YAMAHA logo naturally when performing. The correct setting position is that the YAMAHA logo of the cymbal pad and hi-hat pad are visible in front of the performer. The direction of the cymbal pad and hi-hat pad will be appropriate by adjusting the direction of the stopper as shown below.

If a drum mat (sold separately) is not available, lay a sheet of cardboard on the floor to prevent it from being scratched. 2. Remove the four wing bolts, spring washers, and flat washers from the kick pad frame, and line up each set nearby in the order of removal. 3. Join the base to the frame as shown on the right, and then secure it in place by assembling the wing bolts, spring washers, and flat washers removed in the previous step from the base side. NOTE For details on assembling the foot pedal (sold separately), refer to the "Setting Up" in the KP65 Owner's Manual. Frame Spring washer Wing bolt Flat washer Frame Base 4 Arrange the hi-hat controller and the kick pad as shown in Example of standard assembly on the other side of this sheet. NOTICE Lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor underneath the hi-hat controller and the kick pad. Alternatively, you can place cardboard from the drum kit packaging or the like on the floor to prevent it from being scratched. 5 Connect the pads to the drum trigger module. As described below, connect the output of each pad to the corresponding trigger input jack on the drum trigger module. 1. Plug the straight ends of the nine-channel snake cable into the trigger input jacks on the back of the drum trigger module. • When using the standard setup, the stickers on each of the snake cable's plugs will indicate the name of the corresponding pad. 2. Plug the L-shaped ends of the nine-channel snake cable into the corresponding pads. 3. Wrap the cables for the snare pad, the tom pads, the cymbal pads and the hi-hat pad around the cable clips to prevent them from being pulled out. NOTICE Excessive bending can damage pad cables. Ensure, therefore, that these cables are not bent at an extreme angle when wrapped around the clips.

Plug the AC adaptor's DC cord into the connector. Hook the AC adaptor's DC cord around the cord clip to secure it in place. CAUTION Excessive bending can damage AC adaptor's DC cord. Ensure, therefore, that the cord is not bent at an extreme angle when wrapped around the clips. Doing so can cause fire or electrical shock. Drum trigger module's rear panel connector 2. Using the cable bands, secure the cables to the electronic drum rack at the positions circled in the figure on the right. ( ) If you secure the cable band from the side away from the drum trigger module, you can make connections more easily. 3. Plug the adaptor's AC cord into a domestic wall socket. Cord clip 7 Setting up the drum trigger module. Select the "DTX6K-X" trigger setup on your drum trigger module. (For details on the trigger setup procedure, refer to the "Initial Settings (Trigger Setup Wizard)" in the DTX-PRO Owner's Manual.) The selection of the trigger setup is very important. Selecting the wrong trigger setup will adversely affect your ability to perform comfortably. Use the correct trigger setup that corresponds to your particular electronic drum kit for optimum performance. • Kick pad output (LEVEL) adjustment: Adjust the trigger output to your desired setting by using the KP65 kick pad's level adjustment knob. For details, refer to the "Output Level Adjustment" in the KP65 Owner's Manual. Your electronic drum kit is now ready. * For instructions on turning on the drum trigger module, producing sounds, and other subsequent steps, please refer to the Owner's Manual that came with the module. 2
