Bass Drum Assembly
Step 1: Set the bass drum shell (D) on its side with the spurs (legs) towards the
top. Place the black “Pacific” logo head (B) over the shell. Center the logo under-
neath the BDM (Bass Drum Mount) Receiver located on top of the bass drum.
Step 2: Place one of the hoops (C) over the bass drum head with the flat side of
the hoop against the head.
Step 3: Slide 8 metal washers (H) onto 8 tension rods (G). Then slide the tension
rods into 8 claw hooks (F).
Step 4: Position each claw hook and tension rod into the lugs around the shell
and tighten by hand only. (You will fully tighten and tune the drum later.)
Step 5: Set the shell right-side-up
Step 6: Remove the plastic backing from the self-adhesive Velcro tape on the
bass drum pillow (E). Attach the pillow inside the bottom of the shell with the
adhesive. The pillow should be positioned towards the back of the shell so that it
will lightly touch the batter head when assembled.
Step 7: Turn the drum on its side (black head down) with the pillow towards the
top. Place the clear batter head (B) over the shell. Center the logo underneath the
BDM (Bass Drum Mount) Receiver located on top of the bass drum.
Step 8: Repeat steps 2 through 4 for the batter head.

Bass Drum Assembly (continued)
Step 9: Set the shell right-side-up
Step 10: Angle the spurs (legs) forward by loosening the wing nut so they face slight-
ly towards the front of the bass drum.
Step 11: Loosen the spur receiver with the Drum Key (A) and lower the legs so that
the front of the bass drum is lifted about one inch off the ground. Tighten the spurs.
NOTE: For convenience, you may now want to tune your bass drum before attaching
the toms and pedal. Please refer to page 4 for tuning guidelines.
10” and 12” Tom Toms
Step 1: Insert the BDM (J) into the BDM receiver on top of the bass drum.
Step 2: Loosen the wing screw on the bracket of the 10” Tom Tom (L) and slide it
over the tom arm on the left (from a right-handed drummer’s perspective behind the
kit - reverse if you play left-handed). Take care that the tom arm does not touch the
tom shell. Tighten the wing screw on the tom bracket.
Step 3: Loosen the wing screw on the bracket of the 12” Tom Tom (M). Position it on
the right tom arm (reverse if you play left-handed). Take care that the tom arm does
not touch the tom shell. Tighten the wing screw on the tom bracket.
NOTE: Don’t worry about the precise placement of the drums at this point. You will
arrange them all later.
14” Floor Tom
Step 1: Turn drum upside down so that brackets are closest to the top.
Step 2: Loosen the wing screws on all three brackets. Then, evenly insert floor tom legs
to the top third of each knurled section, with the rubber feet facing upwards.
Step 3: Turn drum upright and adjust height and angle to preference.
Snare Drum and Snare Stand
Step 1: Spread the legs on the bottom section of the Snare Stand (R) and tighten the
wing screw. Slide the upper section of the snare stand into the base section and tighten
that wing screw.
Step 2: Loosen the basket wing screw on the upper section of the snare stand and tip
the basket up. Pull open the basket arms. To further open or close the arms, use the
knob located at the base of the basket.
Step 3: Place the Snare Drum (O) into the open basket. Tighten the knob under the
basket to make the arms snug around the snare drum.
