1.
Attach the U-joint to the main body. Align

to the left of the keys when looking at the
keys from directly above. Next, rotate the
headjoint and adjust the position (angle)
of the embouchure hole so that it aligns
with your mouth.

joint sections, use a cloth or gauze to wipe
off any grime and try again.
For the bass flute, the next step is to attach
the hand rest to the instrument at a com-
fortable angle.
* Take care not to tighten the handle too
firmly.
