Attaching to the instrument and range of motion
The Sledgehammer Custom 100 tunes by picking up the vibrations of the
instrument. Therefore, be sure to aach the Sledgehammer Custom 100 to
the headstock of your instrument in order to tune it. In addition, the Sledge-
hammer Custom 100 can be freely moved so that the display is easy to read.
The Sledgehammer Custom 100 may be damaged if you apply excessive force
within its range of motion, or aempt to move it beyond its intended range of
motion.

Please carefully aach the Sledgehammer Custom 100 to your instrument. Leaving
the Sledgehammer Custom 100 aached for a long time may damage or mark the
instrument's surface.
Depending on various factors such as age-related change or the surface nish,
there is a possibility that your instrument may be damaged by aaching this
product.
Shuttle lights (*M)
As a default, the shule lights are set to light up when no note is inpued for
tuning and to go o while tuning.
If you want the shule lights to remain o, hold the left shule switch turned
upward for three seconds when you turn on the tuner. After the shule lights
blink, they will go o.
Repeat the procedure to return the shule lights to the seing where they
light up when no note is inpued.

Tuning
Tuning procedure
1. Tur n the left shule sw itc h upward. Each t ime you turn t he shule sw itc h,
the Sledgehammer Custom 100 will be turned on or o.
If the power is left on for approximately 3 minutes without any user input,
it will turn o automatically.
2. If necessary, change the meter mode and calibration (reference pitch).
3. Play a single note on your instrument.
The note name closest to the detected pitch appears in the note name indicator.
Tune your instrument to the correct pitch so that the desired note name
appears on the display.
4. Tune the instrument by playing a single note and checking the meter.
The tuning indications dier depending on the selected meter mode seing.
Even if the pitch is within the range of detection, it may not be possible to detect the
pitch of an instrumental sound that contains large numbers of overtones or a sound
that has a rapid decay.
The meter may respond to vibrations it picks up from the environment; however,
this will not aect tuning of the instrument.
Setting the meter mode ( *M )
Each time you turn the left shule switch downward, the meter mode changes.
A number indicating the meter mode appears in the note name indicator for
a few seconds.
1 (Regular) → 2 (Strobe) → 3 (Half strobe) → 1 (Regular) ...
1: Regular meter
Tune your instrument so that the center LED of the meter display is lit up.
The LED illumination will move from the center toward the right if the note
is sharp, or from the center toward the left if the note is at.
The pitch is sharp.
In tune.
The pitch is flat.
2: Strobe meter
Tune your instrument so that the illumination stops owing in the meter display.
Since the strobe meter has higher precision, it allows you to tune with greater
accuracy. The illumination will ow from left to right if the note is sharp, or
from right to left if the note is at.
The pitch is sharp.
In tune.
The pitch is flat.
3: Half-strobe meter
Tune your instrument so that the stream stops and only the center LED is lit up.
