the screw A, next insert the nearby one
corner B, and then insert the opposite corner

screw corner D.
First, align the inner and outer frames at the
corner with the screw A. Then, while lightly
pulling the fabric in the direction indicated
by arrow B so that the fabric is taut, insert
the inner frame at corner B. In the same way,
lightly pull the fabric in the direction
indicated by arrow C and insert corner C,
and then lightly pull the fabric in the
direction indicated by arrow D and insert

securely tighten the screw so that the fabric
is taut.
• After stretching the fabric, lightly tapping it
should produce a drum-like sound.
