NOTICE
• When transporting the chimes, remove all sound tubes from
the chime stand. After the sound tubes are removed, wrap
them in a soft cloth, etc., to prevent scratching while
transporting.
• When attaching or removing the sound tubes, do so in a
place where there is sufficient room, so that the tubes do not
come into contact with other objects.
• When transporting or moving the instrument, do not subject it
to strong shocks.
• The sound tube's pitch and/or tone may change if the tubes
are scratched or bent. Be careful to avoid this.
• Hit the Head cap when playing the chime. Never directly hit
the sound tube with the chime mallet. Failure to do so might
result in damage to the sound tube.
Chime mallet
• Do not use hammers other than chime mallets for playing the
chimes. Doing so can result in damage to the sound tube.
• Do not use the chime mallets for anything other than playing
the chimes.
• Always use the chimes on a flat, level surface. The chimes
will not function properly on a sloped surface.
• Do not rest your weight, or place heavy objects on the
damper pedal. Doing so can result in damage to the damper.
• When not playing the chimes, contact the damper with the
sound tubes. Doing so prevents resonance of the sound
tubes from the acoustic sound of surrounding instruments.
• Do not keep the chimes in an environment with high
temperature or high humidity.
• When cleaning the product, wipe with a soft and dry cloth. Do
not use thinners or polishing preparations.

INFORMATION
• When exposed to the air, the sound tubes may discolor over
time, but this does not affect the sound quality.
• Use the sound tube and chime stand in the correct
combination. When a sound tube for the YCH6018 is attached
to the YCHS7018, the reverberation cannot be shortened by
the damper pedal.
