Assembling the hi-hat stand 1. If a drum mat (sold separately) is not available, lay a sheet of cardboard on the floor to prevent it from being scratched. 2. Loosen the hi-hat stand's wing bolt a. 3. Open up the three legs as shown below and then retighten the wing bolt a to lock them in place. 4. Insert the footboard stabilizer rods into the frame holes as shown below. Wing bolt a Footboard stabilizer rod Footboard stabilizer rod 5. Loosen the hi-hat clutch's wing bolt b and remove the hi-hat clutch. * The hi-hat clutch is not required when assembling the electronic drum kit in the standard fashion described in this manual. Instead, the hi-hat clutch that came with the RHH135 Real Hi-hat Pad will be used. 6. Remove the hi-hat shaft from the upper tube . 7. Insert the hi-hat shaft go into the lower tube removed in Step 6 as far as it will and screw in the tip. 8. Insert the upper tube over the hi-hat shaft and tighten the wing bolt c to secure it in place with the cymbal support plate approximately half way between the top of the lower tube and the top of the hi-hat shaft . 9. Remove the felt pad attached above the cymbal support plate. It is not required when assembling the electronic drum kit in the standard fashion described in this manual.

Assembling the drum trigger module and cymbal pads PCY135 cymbal pad PCY135 cymbal pad Drum trigger module  Cymbal pads 1. Using the drum key, loosen the stopper's key bolt. Stopper 2. Remove the wing nut, the two felt pads, and the bolt cover from the cymbal holder. Key bolt Drum key Wing nut Felt pads Bolt cover  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. Drum trigger module + module holder Clamp bolt Insert Holder clamp 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.

NOTICE • Lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor underneath the hi-hat stand 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. • Ensure that you do not lower the electronic drum rack's center strut too much as doing so may cause it to come into contact with the kick pad. 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 ten-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 ten-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.

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 closer to the drum trigger module, you can make connections more easily. KICK SNARE 6 Connect the drum trigger module to a power supply. 1. 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. connector 2. Plug the adaptor's AC cord into a domestic wall socket. Cord clip 7 Setting up the drum trigger module. According to your particular electronic drum kit, select the "DTX6K3-X" or the "DTX6K2-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 KP90 kick pad's level adjustment knob. For details, refer to the "Adjusting the Output Level" in the KP90 Owner's Manual. Assembling the kick pad 1. 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 two wing bolts from the kick pad frame, and then place them nearby. 3. Join the base to the frame as shown on the right, and then secure it in place by the wing bolts removed in the previous step from the base side. NOTE For details on assembling the foot pedal (sold separately), refer to the "Assembling the KP90" in the KP90 Owner's Manual. Frame Wing bolt Frame Base IMPORTANT • You can play comfortably by striking near the YAMAHA logo. 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 will be appropriate by adjusting the direction of the stopper as shown on the right. The direction of the hi-hat pad will also be appropriate by adjusting the direction of the hi-hat clutch. • The hi-hat shaft will become loose while you continue to use the hi-hat, and the hi-hat pad may rotate. Since this may adversely affect performance, screw in the hi-hat shaft periodically and adjust the position of the hi-hat pad. Stopper's pin YAMAHA logo Hi-hat shaft Screw in 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
