Connecting Pedals 1 And 2; Turning The Power On/Off; Setting The Battery Type - Yamaha DD-75 Owner's Manual

Connecting Pedals 1 and 2

Pedal 1
Connect the supplied Pedal 1 to the [PEDAL 1 (KICK)] jack
and Pedal 2 to the [PEDAL 2 (HI-HAT)] jack.
CAUTION
• Avoid getting caught in or tripping over the pedal cords;
this may cause the instrument to fall and result in damage
or injury.
NOTICE
• Avoid using the pedals directly on a soft floor, since they
may scratch the surface of the floor.
NOTE
• Make sure that the pedal plugs are properly connected to the
PEDAL jacks before turning on the power.
• Do not press the pedals while turning the power on. Doing
this changes the recognized polarity of the pedal, resulting in
reversed pedal operation.
• You can use an Electronic drum pad KP65 (sold separately) or
an Electronic kick unit KU100 (sold separately) and hi-hat con-
troller HH65 or HH40 (sold separately) plugging into the
[PEDAL 1 (KICK)] jack and [PEDAL 2(HI-HAT)].
