If you experience any of the above-mentioned problems even after you’ve made
the correct settings, try adjusting the head tension and mounting the kick pedal,
as described in the following.
Adjusting the head tension
Head tension that is too loose may cause problems. Adjust the head tension according to the following procedure.
Procedure
1. Loosen all six lock nuts.
2. Using a tuning key, loosen the tuning bolts until a slight gap is
produced.
3. Tighten all tuning bolts by hand, as tightly as you can.
4. Using the tuning key, turn the tuning bolts a half to a full revolution
each, thus tightening them.
Tighten each tuning bolt one by one, observing the numerical order shown at right.
5. Tighten all lock nuts to prevent loosening of the tuning bolts.
This completes the head tension adjustment.
Notes concerning installation of the kick pedal on the KD-120.
• Install the kick pedal securely.
• Set the KD-120 so no mechanical noise is heard when you step on pedal.
• Make sure that KD-120 does not touch the stand or the other pads.
• Moving the beater’s striking point upwards from the center of the head increases the sensitivity a little.
