Brand: Yamaha
Product Type: Musical Instrument
Introduction
You are now the owner of a high-quality musical instrument. Thank you for choosing Yamaha. For instructions on the proper assembly of the instrument, and how to keep the instrument in optimum condition for as long as possible, we urge you to read this Owner's Manual thoroughly.
Precautions
Please read the following precautions carefully before using the instrument. These are important for safe operation and to prevent damage or injury to yourself or others. Pay close attention to all precautions!
⚠️ [Important Point Icon]: Indicates points requiring special attention.
❌ [Prohibited Action Icon]: Indicates prohibited actions.
Failure to observe precautions marked with ⚠️ may result in injury.
General Safety Precautions
- Do not throw or swing the instrument at others. Parts may fly off and injure someone. Handle the instrument gently.
- Keep maintenance oils and cleaning waxes out of reach of children. Ingestion of maintenance oil or cleaning wax can cause injury or be fatal. Store these items where children cannot reach them, and ensure children are not present during maintenance.
- Keep small parts out of reach of babies. Your child may accidentally swallow these parts.
- Be careful not to touch the spring needles during maintenance or at any other time. The tips of the spring needles on higher-end models are very sharp to ensure smoother key action.
Important Notes
- Pay attention to climate conditions, such as temperature and humidity. Keep the instrument away from heat sources like stoves, heaters, or radiators. Do not use or store the instrument in environments with extreme temperatures or humidity. Doing so may damage key balance, linkages, or pads, leading to problems during playing.
- Do not use petroleum-based solvents or thinners for cleaning the instrument's finish, as this may damage the lacquer coating.
- Be careful not to deform the instrument. Placing the instrument on an unstable surface may cause it to fall or be bumped, leading to deformation. Consider the placement and orientation of the instrument carefully.
- Do not modify the instrument. Modifications may void the warranty and could render the instrument unrepairable.
Instruments with plated finishes: The color of the plating may change over time but will not affect the instrument's performance. Early stages of discoloration may be removable with regular maintenance. (Discoloration becomes harder to remove with time.)
* Use accessories specified for the instrument's finish. Also, note that metal polish may slightly remove the surface lacquer, thinning the finish. Use caution before applying metal polish.
Practice Etiquette
Even though this instrument can produce beautiful sounds, repetitive phrases or embarrassing mistakes during practice may disturb others. Please be considerate of your neighbors.
Precautions for Wooden Body
The wooden body of the Yamaha Oboe is made from natural materials such as African blackwood. Therefore, compared to metal or resin instruments, it is more susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity. Rapid changes can cause the wood to warp, leading to cracks in the body or damage to the keys. The oboe body is thicker and more delicate than many other woodwind instruments.
To keep your instrument in good condition for a long time, please observe the following precautions:
- When the weather is cold: Wait until the oboe has adapted to room temperature before playing. Do not blow air into the instrument to warm it up. This can cause drastic temperature changes inside the body, potentially leading to cracks or other damage.
- When you get a new instrument: Especially during the first one to two months, let the instrument rest to extend its lifespan. Gradually increase playing time: only play for about 20-30 minutes each day during the first week, then increase by about 10 minutes each day to gradually extend playing time.
- After playing: Use the included swab to remove moisture and dirt from the instrument.
- After playing: Store the instrument in its case. Do not store it in environments with high temperature or humidity.
- If the instrument will not be used temporarily: Remove moisture and dirt with the swab, then place the instrument with the keys facing up on a stable surface.
- Do not leave a wet cloth or swab inside the instrument case.
The oboe is a very delicate instrument. Do not use it in the following situations, as it may damage the body:
- Direct sunlight for extended periods. (*Refer to page 7, "Maintenance After Playing.")
- In rain or very humid conditions. (*Refer to page 10, "Caution: Storing the Oboe.")
- Near heat sources, such as stoves or electric heaters.
- Near air conditioning, such as air conditioners.
Instrument Parts Names
The oboe consists of several parts. The diagrams below show the main components for semi-automatic and full-automatic key systems.
Semi-Automatic Key System
- Upper Joint
- Lower Joint
- Bell Section
Full-Automatic Key System
- Upper Joint
- Lower Joint
- Bell Section
Assembly and Tuning
Before assembling the instrument, please observe the following:
- When holding and assembling the instrument, be careful not to apply excessive force to the keys. Excessive force may cause keys to break, making the instrument unbalanced.
- When assembling the instrument for the first time, the joints may be difficult to connect due to tightness. In such cases, apply a thin layer of the included cork grease to the cork on the joint. Then, try connecting them again. If they still do not connect smoothly, apply a thin layer of cork grease to the inside of the joint socket. When applying cork grease, be careful not to apply too much.
Assembling the Oboe
- Apply Cork Grease: Before assembling the oboe, apply a thin layer of cork grease to the cork on the joint tubes and below the reed tube.
- Attach Bell Section to Lower Joint: Hold the lower joint with your left hand and align the connecting key. Slide the bell section onto the lower joint.
- Connect Upper and Lower Joints: Hold the lower joint with your left hand and align the connecting key. Slide the lower joint onto the upper joint.
Oboe Tuning Tips
The tuning of the oboe depends on the length and type of the reed tube, as well as the length, width, and cut of the reed itself. If you experience tuning difficulties, try adjusting these parts. Additionally, room temperature and the temperature inside the oboe will affect its tuning. Before tuning, allow the instrument to adapt to room temperature, or warm it up by holding it with your hands.
Adjusting Thumb Rest and Maintenance
Adjusting Thumb Rest (For instruments with adjustable thumb rests only)
In addition to adjusting the vertical position, you can also adjust the left-right angle until it fits the shape of the player's thumb.
- Adjustment: Loosen the screws with the included 1.5mm hex wrench and adjust the thumb rest to the desired position. See the diagram below: ① Adjust vertical position, ② Adjust left-right angle.
- * Do not remove the screws to avoid losing parts.
Playing
- Do not place the oboe with the tone holes facing down on a table. Do not lean the oboe against a wall with the tone holes facing down. This reduces the chance of water dripping from the tone holes into the body, which could increase the risk of the body cracking.
- If you need to put the instrument down, even for a short period, place it back in its case. This protects the instrument and prevents tripping hazards.
Maintenance After Playing
After playing the oboe, follow these procedures to clean the instrument.
- Caution: Disassembling the Oboe: When disassembling the oboe into the upper joint, lower joint, and bell section, do not bring the instrument close to your face or anyone else's. If any part suddenly detaches, it may cause injury.
- Remove the reed. Wipe off moisture with a silk cloth and place it in the reed case.
- Use the included swab to clean the inside of the instrument body. If moisture remains inside, it may cause the body to crack.
Insert and remove the swab from the bell section end. The swab cannot be removed from the upper joint end. If you feel resistance, pull the swab back out from the bell section end. Pulling too hard may cause the swab to get stuck inside the instrument.
Maintenance (Continued)
- Moisture can easily remain at the joints, potentially causing the body to crack. Wipe thoroughly with a silk cloth.
- Even during breaks in playing, try to dry the inside of the body as much as possible.
- Keep the swab clean and dry at all times.
- Once or twice a month, polish the instrument's surface with a polishing cloth. Be careful not to damage the keys or other parts.
- If keys feel stiff, you can use dedicated key oil (sold separately). Do not apply excessive amounts of key oil. Wipe off any excess oil from the key surfaces.
- If you are unsure where to apply key oil, consult your dealer.
* Do not apply excessive amounts of key oil.
* If you are unsure where to apply key oil, consult your dealer.
- Use a bore cleaner to remove dirt from inside the tone holes, between keys, and under keys. Be careful not to damage springs or pads.
- Use absorbent paper to remove dirt and moisture from pads. Tone holes, especially on the octave key, can accumulate moisture quickly and should be wiped clean promptly.
Do not pull out absorbent paper while keys are pressed down. The paper may tear and fall into the body, causing the instrument to become unbalanced.
Troubleshooting
- Tone is unclear or instrument is out of tune: If pads are deformed or the body is cracked, send the instrument to your dealer for repair.
- Keys are not responsive or do not move: Springs may be dislodged, or keys may be deformed.
- Joints are too tight or too loose for assembly: The cork on the joints may have shrunk or expanded due to temperature or humidity changes. The cork on the joints may be worn out.
- Keys are noisy: Keys may lack oil or screws may be loose. Cork or felt pads may have fallen off or worn out. Keys may be directly touching the body or other keys.
Caution: Storing the Oboe
Do not place the oboe with the tone holes facing down on a table.
Correct Placement Method
The oboe's construction is perhaps the most complex of all wind instruments. Minor changes in temperature or humidity, or even slight external pressure, can damage key balance, pads, or affect key touch. We recommend having the instrument adjusted by a dealer every two to three weeks.
- Do not place any objects in the instrument case that could press on the keys.
- Do not put excessive weight on the instrument or the case.
- When the instrument is not in use, place it back in its case and close the lid. To protect the instrument from temperature and humidity changes, place the case in a bag.
- Do not place the instrument near air conditioning or heat sources, such as air conditioners or heaters.
Maintenance of Oboe Accessories
- Silver Polishing Cloth: Removes tarnish and spots from silver and silver-plated instruments, restoring a beautiful, clear luster.
- Polishing Cloth: A soft, dense cloth suitable for wiping the instrument's surface.
- Thumb Rest Pad: A soft, high-quality cloth for wiping the instrument's surface.
- Cleaning Cloth: Removes dirt from the instrument's surface, restoring its luster.
- Absorbent Paper: Place between pads and tone holes, then gently press keys to completely absorb moisture and cork grease.
- Cork Grease: Keeps joints smooth and sealed. Remove dirt from the cork on the joints, apply a thin layer of cork grease to the cork, then connect the upper and lower joints and spread the cork grease evenly.
- Key Oil: Apply a small amount of key oil to the key rod and key tube, or inside the key tube, to prevent rust and wear.
- Bore Cleaner: This cleaner is suitable for removing dirt from inside tone holes, between keys, and in corners. Be careful not to damage springs or pads.
- Swab: This swab has excellent absorbency and can remove moisture and dirt from the inside of the instrument body.
- Silver Cleaner: Use this cleaner to treat tarnish or remove spots from silver or silver-plated surfaces. Apply a small amount of cleaner to a cleaning cloth or polishing cloth, then wipe the instrument surface.
- Wood Oil: This oil prevents woodwind instruments from warping and cracking due to moisture. Wipe moisture and dirt from the inside surface of the body. Dip a swab (or similar cloth) into a small amount of wood oil and apply it inside the body.
