Assembling the rackCAUTION!Danger of cuts on hands and fingersWhen connecting the parts, take care for sharp edges on the metal tubes, screws etc.

Attach the horizontal connection tubes (5, 6) to the lateral support tubes (1, 2).
Then tighten the mounting screws with the drum key (25).

Attach the two side crossbeams of the rack (7, 8, 9) in the provided mounting clamps.
Attach the crossbeam support tubes (3) in the provided mounting clamps. Make sure that the ends of the support tubes (3) are resting on the floor.
Then tighten the mounting screws.

Position the mounting brackets (24) for the individual pads. Then tighten the mounting screws.
Turn the mounting brackets (24) in the right position for mounting the pads. Then tighten the mounting screws.

Insert the brackets (4) for the cymbals (Crash, Ride) into the provided mounting clamps on the rack. Fasten the brackets using the mounting screws at the desired height.
Loosen the retaining screws on the bracket joints and turn the brackets into the desired playing positions. Then retighten the locating screws

Mounting pads on the rack

Attach the mounting brackets to the pads (10, 11, 12). Tighten the wing nuts on the pads by hand first.
Then slide the plastic ends of the mounting brackets up to the stop into the designated clamps on the rack.
Align the pads on the rack to meet your needs, then tighten the wing nuts of the pad brackets and the bolts of the pad clamps on the rack evenly.

Mounting cymbals on the rack

Unscrew the wing nuts from the cymbal holders and take the felt washers off the holders.
Place the cymbals as shown in the figure on the holders.
Place the felt washers on the cymbals and fix the cymbals with the associated wing nuts on the holders.

Setting up the bass drum pedal

Snap the two metal rods into the holes provided on the frame of the bass drum pedal.
Place the beater (22) into the hole provided on the rotary head of the pedal (21) and tighten the clamp with the drum key.

Aligning the beater

Pay attention to the correct orientation of the beater. The beater may only hit the bass drum pad with the black plastic side. When using the felt side however, the abrasion and a possible tearing of the mesh head skin is significantly accelerated. The bass drum beater can be turned 180 degrees by loosening the locking screw.

Mounting the drum module on the rack

Put the e-drum module (19) up to the stop into the free clamp of the crossbeam. Thread the multi-cable (30) through the clamp and insert the sub-D connector into the corresponding socket of the drum module.

Put the hi-hat on the lower part of the connector piece. Put the parts removed in the previous step back onto the connector piece and retighten the Allen screw.
Put the hi-hat controller onto the hi-hat stand.
Insert the hi-hat with the connector piece onto the hi-hat stand. The distance between the hi-hat and the hi-hat controller should be 15 mm to 20 mm.
