Assembly Manual
IMPORTANT
This manual describes the process of assembling drum pads and a
Cymbal pad drum module to an already assembled RS502 Electronic Drum Rack.
Before starting the steps below, therefore, be sure to assemble your
RS502 as described in the Owner's Manual that came with it.
NOTICE
Before starting assembly, lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor.
Tom pad
Alternatively, you can place cardboard from the drum kit packaging or
the like on the floor to prevent it from being scratched. This is particu-
larly important when using the HH65 Hi-hat Controller and KP65 Kick
Pad.

Please read carefully before proceeding.
Failure to observe the precautions described below can result in
CAUTION
injury and/or property damage.
• Mind your fingers when adjusting clamps. They can easily be crushed if care is not taken during
this operation.
• Be careful with the tips of supports, arms, screws, and the like. Fingers can easily be injured by
sharp tips if these components are not handled carefully.
• Do not place hands or feet under a kick pad or foot pedal. Doing so could result in injury.
• Do not use the electronic drum kit's rack to hold acoustic drums. Doing so could cause clamps to
break and the drums to fall off, which in turn could lead to injury.
NOTICE: Usage Precautions
• When connecting and disconnecting cables, be sure to hold the plug and not the cable itself. In
addition, avoid placing heavy items on top of cables and do not allow them to touch sharp edges.
Failure to avoid these precautions can lead to cable breakage and disconnection.
• Do not climb onto the electronic drum kit and avoid placing heavy objects on it. Failure to observe
this precaution can result in malfunction.
• Avoid using or storing the electronic drum kit in very hot locations (i.e., in direct sunlight, in close
proximity to a heater, or in a closed vehicle) or in highly humid locations (i.e., in a bathroom or out-
doors in wet weather). Failure to observe this precaution can lead to warping, discoloration, mal-
function, or breakdown.
• Avoid cleaning the electronic drum kit with organic solvents, paint thinner, or alcohol as these sub-
stances can cause warping and discoloration. Instead, we recommend you remove dust using a soft
dry cloth or wipe clean using a moist, tightly-wrung cloth. If the electronic drum kit is very dirty, first
wipe the dirt away using a cloth moistened with a neutral detergent solution and tightly wrung. Fol-
lowing this, wipe away the detergent solution using a cloth soaked in water and tightly wrung.
Open the boxes to reveal their contents.
