Be Careful During Setup

• The ends of the cymbal stand and tom holder are sharp. Handle with care.
• Avoid pinching fingers when setting up or storing the drum rack.
• Ensure the stand's legs are sufficiently open during setup. Insufficient opening may result in inadequate stability.
• When using the boom arm in an extended position, stability is improved if the cymbal is positioned directly above one of the stand's legs.
• This also applies when attaching a tom to the tom holder; stability improves if the tom is positioned directly above one of the stand's legs.
• When loosening an adjuster to change the height or angle of a tom or cymbal, the tube or pad may fall, potentially pinching your fingers. Support the tom or tube with one hand while slowly loosening the adjuster.
• To prevent the stand from tipping or falling, tighten the knobs until there is no play. When tightening Adjuster 3, ensure the gears that maintain the angle engage firmly.
• Secure cables so they do not interfere with playing, using the provided cable ties around the stands.

WARNING

• Do not disassemble or modify the apparatus yourself. Do not perform any action unless instructed in the user manual, as this risks causing a malfunction.
• Do not repair the apparatus yourself or replace parts. Contact your dealer, a Roland service center, or an authorized Roland dealer. Refer to the Roland website for a list of Roland service centers and authorized dealers.
• Do not use or store the apparatus in locations that are:
  • Exposed to extreme temperatures (e.g., direct sunlight in a closed vehicle, near a heating pipe, on heat-producing equipment).
  • Wet (e.g., bathroom, laundry room, on wet floors).
  • Exposed to steam or smoke.
  • Exposed to salt.
  • Exposed to rain.
  • Dusty or sandy.
  • Exposed to high levels of vibration and shock.

• Do not place the apparatus on an unstable surface. This risks injury when the apparatus tips over or falls.
• Protect children from injury. It is dangerous to approach a drum set carelessly. Drum sets and stands are heavy and consist of many metal parts with sharp ends. A person approaching carelessly may accidentally bump into the drum set, fall, or trip. If the drum set or stand falls over, it can also cause scratches on musical instruments or furniture. Take special care to prevent children from playing near a drum set.
• Do not drop the apparatus or subject it to heavy shocks. This risks causing damage or malfunction.

WARNING

• Ensure tubes are securely placed before fastening them. It is dangerous to fasten a tube that has nearly pulled out of the stand. Check that the tube is properly inserted into the holder, then tighten the adjuster to secure it.

CAUTION

• Use this stand only for specific Roland products. This stand should only be used with specific Roland musical instruments. Refer to the apparatus instructions. Use with other models may lead to instability, causing injury to persons.
• Assess safety aspects before using stands. Even if you follow the precautions in this user manual, the stand may tip over depending on the usage conditions. Check the entire installation for safety before use.
• Do not stand on the apparatus or place heavy objects on it. This risks injury when the apparatus tips over or falls.
• Ensure your fingers are not pinched. Be careful not to pinch fingers, toes, etc., when handling the following moving parts. If a child uses the apparatus, an adult must supervise and guide them.
  • Legs
  • Adjusters
  • Tom holders
• Keep small items out of the reach of children. Store the following small parts out of the reach of small children to prevent accidental ingestion.
  • Removable parts: Screws, washers, nuts, felt, springs, adjusters, cymbal nuts, rotation stoppers.

Important Notes

• Placement: Depending on the material and temperature of the surface where the apparatus is placed, the rubber feet may discolor or soil the surface.
• Maintenance: Do not use gasoline, thinner, alcohol, or solvents to prevent discoloration and deformation. If cleaning is required, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
• Additional Precautions: When disposing of the cardboard box or cushioning material in which this apparatus is packed, observe the waste disposal regulations applicable in your country or region.

Tighten Screws Securely

Ensure all screws are tightened securely to prevent the stand from tipping or falling during playback. When setting the angle of a component with gears (e.g., a cymbal mount), ensure the gears engage correctly when tightening. If you overtighten a screw while the gears are not engaged, vibrations during performance may cause the cymbal or other object to fall.
