Making the Settings

Attaching the Pad to a Stand
Attach the PD-8 to a drum stand.
When attaching the PD-8 to the pad mount, be sure to tighten
the stand fixing screw securely. If any of them remain loose,
the pad could fall off.
Tighten
Loosen
Rod
Pass the rod through the pipe that is inside the holder.
When attaching the PD-8 to a commercially available tom
stand, check the dimensions of the rod. Depending on the
dimensions of the rod, it may not be possible to attach the pad
to the stand.
Acceptable rod diameters: 8.5–11.5 (3/8 to 1/2 inch)
Connecting to a Percussion Sound
Module
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power
on all devices before making any connections.
1. Use the included connection cable and connect
the output jack of the PD-8 to the trigger input
jack of the percussion sound module.
Connect the L-shaped plug of the included cable to the
PD-8. This will prevent strain from being applied to the
PD-8.
