Attaching a Strap
You can attach a commercially available taiko strap and play this
instrument.
To attach a strap, wrap it around the tip of the rod as shown in the
illustration (two locations).
Attach the strap to these two locations.
Wrap in a gure-eight, and then tie.
NOTE
If the wrapping is insucient, the strap might be displaced or
disconnected. Fasten it securely to prevent the instrument from
dropping.

bolts until you can see their
heads.

The rubber components of the head and rim are consumable
parts whose performance will decline with use over time.
If the head becomes torn, or if the surface of the head sags even
when the head tension is correctly adjusted, replace the head.
If the rubber of the rim is damaged, contact the retailer from
whom you purchased the product, or the nearest Roland Service
Center.
