Setting Up the Kit
Overview
The band has a width of 7 mm.
Use this for adjusting the head tension.
7 mm
Heads MUST BE TUNED BEFORE PLAYING.
When adjusting, use a tuning key.
Like with an acoustic drum, accurate and equal head tension
is needed for correct triggering response.
On the PD-105/85, adjusting the head tension affects only
the head response, and not the pitch of the sound, as it
would on an acoustic drum.
1.
Loosen the tuning bolts until a slight gap is
produced.
2.
Tighten all tuning bolts by fingers, as tightly as
you can.

3.
Using the tuning key, turn the tuning bolts two
full revolutions each, thus tightening them.
Tighten each tuning bolt one by one, observing the
numerical order shown in the figure.

1.
Use the included tuning key to tighten the
tuning bolts.
Tighten the bolts until there is a space of approximately 7
mm between the frame and the hoop.
* The setup includes a lock bushing (to prevent loosening), so the
bolt should be tightened fairly securely.
fig.PD85-Adjust.e
A black, 7 mm strip is printed at the edge of this page.
Use this as a reference when making the adjustment.
Tighten each tuning bolt one by one, observing the
numerical order shown in the diagram. Do not firmly
tighten a single tuning bolt by itself. Doing so will make
it impossible to tension the head evenly, and will cause
malfunctions.

2.
Fine-tune the adjustment while continuing to
check the pad feel and response.
