Assemble the drum stand
* If you will be using this drum stand for an extended period of time in
the same location, we recommend that you use a drum mat (TDM series) made by
Roland to prevent the rubber feet from soiling the surface on which they are
placed.
- The drum stand assembly procedure is for right-handed players. If you want to set up the stand for left-handed players, refer to “Assembly for left-handed players” in the lower right.
1. Assembling the left and right arm sections * Lay the left and right arm sections on the floor while assembling them.
Left arm section
1–1. Use the drum key to loosen the bolt of the left leg 4 holder, and insert the left arm 3 . 1–2. Once the pipe is fully inserted, firmly tighten the bolt with the drum key. - Insert the left arm 3 so that the bolt on the holder faces towards the player, as shown in the illustration. Right arm section
1–3. Use the drum key to loosen the bolt of the right leg 7 , and insert the right arm 6 .
1–4. Once the pipe is fully inserted, firmly tighten the bolts (2) with the drum key.
2. Attaching the left/right arm sections onto the center frame
2–1. Use the drum key to loosen bolt of holder A attached to the left-side pipe (with two holders) on the left side of the center frame 5 , and insert the left arm 3 of the assembly you created in step 1 into holder A.
2–2. Once the pipe is fully inserted, firmly tighten the bolt with the drum key. 2–3. Use the drum key to loosen bolt of holder B, and insert the right arm 6 of the assembly you created in step 1 into holder B of the center frame 5. 2–4. Once the pipe is fully inserted, firmly tighten the bolt with the drum key.
Attaching the snare pipe
3–1. Use the drum key to loosen the bolt of holder C, and insert the snare
pipe 9 into holder C of the center frame 5.
3–2. Once the pipe is fully inserted, firmly tighten the bolt with the drum
key.
- Insert the snare pipe that’s not fitted with a cap into holder C.
4. Adjusting the vertical pipes
4–1. Place the center frame 5 upright, then loosen the hand knobs (2) of
holders A and B. Next, spread open the pipes at left and right.
4–2. Adjust the angle so that the drum stand can stand up by itself, and then
tighten the hand knobs (2) that you loosened.
4–3. Make sure that the four vertical pipes remain fully upright, and that the
left/right arms are fully horizontal.
If the stand is wobbling, loosen the bolts for the left leg 4 and right leg 7
holders and adjust the height. After adjusting the height, tighten the bolts
on the holders. 5. Attaching the pad mounts
Center frame/snare pipe
5–1. Attach the U-shaped pipe holders 5 onto the top of the center frame 10 ,
and tighten the respective hand knobs.
5–2. Attach the U-shaped pipes 8 onto the U-shaped pipe holders 10 , and firmly tighten the respective hand knobs.
5–3. Attach the snare holder 11 to the snare pipe 9 , and tighten the hand
knob.
NOTE
The tip of the snare holder is sharp. Handle it with care.
Right arm
5–4. Attach the U-shaped pipe holder 10 to the right leg 7 and tighten the
hand knob.
5–5. Attach the U-shaped pipe 8 onto the U-shaped pipe holder 10 , and use the drum key to firmly tighten the bolt.
6. Attaching the tom pads (T1, T2), cymbal rod and hi-hat rod
6–1. Attach the toms (2) onto the U-shaped pipe 8 on the top of the center
frame 5.
6–2. Attach the cymbal rod holders 12 (2) onto the U-shaped pipes 8 on the top
of the center frame 5 . 6–3. Insert the rods into the holders, and adjust the
position and direction of all parts as shown in the illustration to complete
the setup. Assembly for left-handed players
If you want to use a left-handed setup, assemble the stand as follows.
- Detach holder C (for the snare) that’s on the left side of the center frame 5 , and attach it onto the right side. Attach the snare pipe 9 onto holder C, and then attach the snare holder 11 .
- Swap the positions of the left arm 3 and left leg 4 with the right arm6 and right leg 7 . Attach the arm so that the hi-hat rod holder bolt faces inwards (towards the player), and then attach the hi-hat rod 2 .
- Attach the U-shaped pipe holder 10 and U-shaped pipe 8 on the left-side leg.
Attach the parts
-
Adjust the position and height of the pads and pedals according to your build and preferences, so that they are easy to play.
NOTE
Be careful not to get your fingers pinched by the movable parts when you operate the drum sound module holder, the hi-hat control pedal, the kick pedal or the cymbals. If using this in a location where children are present, be sure to provide adult supervision or guidance.
Attaching the hi-hat (CY-5)- Insert the cymbal so that the stopper (convex portion) on the hi-hat rod fits into the concave part on the bottom of the cymbal.
- Tighten the cymbal nut enough to prevent the pad from wobbling when you strike it.
Attaching the drum sound module (TD-02)
- Use the bolt for the drum sound module holder to attach the drum sound module to the holder.
- Loosen the bolt of the drum sound module holder, attach the top part of the left leg holder and tighten the bolt.
Attaching the crash cymbal/ride cymbal (CY-5)
Insert the cymbal onto the top of the cymbal mount.
Attaching the snare drum (PDX-8) When attaching the PDX-8 (snare),
refer to “About the memory clamp” on the other side.
Attaching the toms (PD-4) To prevent the drum stand from tipping over,
do not position the stand leg pipes at the two ends more than 1.2 meters
apart. Adjusting the position of the cymbal
Adjust the height of the rod so that the highest point of the cymbal is
less than 1.2 meters. Attach the cymbal rods so that they face straight up, to
prevent the drum stand from falling over.
Connect the pads to the drum sound module (TD-02)
Connection procedure
1. Connect the dedicated connection cable to the drum sound module as shown
in the illustration below.
Insert the connector all the way, then turn the knobs to lock it in place. 2.
Labels indicating the pad to be connected are attached to the dedicated
connection cable. Connect the cables by referring to the illustration at
right. * Insert the plug firmly, making sure it’s all the way in.
Cabling diagram for the dedicated connection cable (as seen from the back)
“CR2” is not used. You can use a separately sold cymbal set (OPTD1C) to add
more cymbals. If you are not adding this, leave the cap attached. Fasten it
so that it does not
obstruct your performance.
-
Fasten the cables so that they will not obstruct your playing; use cable clips 13 and cable ties 14 . We recommend attaching the clips in the locations shown with a. Make sure to wrap the cable ties around the pipes.
For a left-handed setup
Assemble the drum stand as described in “Assembly for left-handed players” in the “ 2
Assemble the drum stand” section, and then attach the parts and connect the cables as shown in the illustration at right. Cabling diagram for the dedicated connection cable (As seen from the back) “CR2” is not used. You can use a separately sold cymbal set (OP-TD1C) to add more cymbals. If you are not adding this, leave the cap attached. Fasten it so that it does not obstruct your performance.
This completes assembly and connections.
When you’ve finished making connections, turn on the power as described in “ Quick Start”, and verify that you can hear sound.
Detailed explanation of each part
About the memory clamp
The memory clamp aligns the pad at a fixed height when it is attached.
When shipped, the memory clamp is attached at the recommended position for using the drum safely. NOTE
If the memory clamp is moved or removed in order to adjust the position of the PDX-8 (snare), a greater length of the rod may protrude; take care that the protruding rod does not cause injury.
PDX-8 (Snare) NOTE
Be sure to adjust the head tension of the pad before use.
Adjusting the head tension- Adjust each tuning bolt a little at a time, moving in order from one side to the opposite side as shown in the illustration. The appropriate amount of tension is one that will provide approximately the same striking response as on an acoustic drum.
- Use the drum key to adjust the tension as needed.
PD-4 (Tom) NOTE
PD-4 does not support the use of the rim-shot technique.
CY-5 (Hi-hat, Ride, Crash)
NOTE
Continuous playing may cause dis-coloration of the pad, but this will not
affect the Pad’s function.
Hi-hat control pedal / kick pedal
You can check whether the pedal is a kick pedal (KIK) or hi-hat control pedal
(HHC) by looking at the sticker on the bottom. Quick Start
