CAUTION

If this symbol is ignored and the equipment is used improperly, there is a danger or injury to persons handling the equipment, and material damage could occur.

Watch your fingers when adjusting clamps. They may become pinched, resulting in injury.

Make sure you hold onto the plug, not the cable, when connecting or disconnecting the cable. Also, never place any heavy or sharp objects on the cable. Applying excessive force to the cable may result in damage to the cable, such as the wires being severed, etc.

Do not step on or place heavy objects on the product. It may result in damage.

Be careful around pipe ends, inside the pipe and screw ends. Metal shavings, etc. may injure your fingers.

Do not put your hands or feet under the foot pedal or foot switch. They may be pinched, resulting in injury.

Do not use or keep the product in places with extremely high temperature (places in direct sunlight, close to a heater, in a closed car, etc.) or high humidity (bathroom, outside on a rainy day, etc.). Doing so may result in deformation, discoloration, damage or deterioration.

When cleaning the product, do not use benzine, thinner or alcohol as it may result in discoloration or deformation. Please wipe with a soft cloth or a damp cloth that has been wrung out thoroughly. If the product is soiled or sticky, use a neutral detergent on a cloth then wipe with a damp cloth that has been wrung out thoroughly to remove any remaining detergent. Also pay close attention so as not to let the water and detergent come into contact with the cushions used in the product; doing so may result in deterioration.

Do not attach acoustic drums to the electronic drum rack. Clamps may be damaged and drums may drop, causing injury.

Checking the contents of RS85

Open the RS85 (Rack System) package and confi rm the contents.

PRECAUTIONS

Before using, please read this assembly manual, and use this product in a safe and proper manner. Particularly in the case of children and young users, parents or an instructor should teach the children the proper manner in which to use the device.

WARNING

If this symbol is ignored and the equipment is used improperly, fatal injury to persons or serious damage could occur.

Do not let small children assemble or set up this product by themselves, or they may be injured. Always assemble this product with adult supervision.

Be careful with the edges of the cymbal holders and the tom holders. The sharp holder ends may result in injury.

Be careful with the edges of the spurs attached to the base. The sharp spur ends may result in injury.

If this product is used with the rack system or a cymbal stand, make sure all bolts are tightened firmly. Also, when adjusting the height or angle, do not suddenly loosen the bolts. Loose bolts may result in the rack overturning or parts dropping, causing injury.

Always set the product on a flat and solid surface. Placement on a sloping, unstable surface or on steps may result in the product being unstable and subject to overturning.

When setting the product, please pay close attention to the handling and setting of cables. Carelessly placed cables may cause the user and others to trip and fall.
