Unscrew  the  Reversible  Nut  from  the  Cymbal  Post  and 

remove  it  along  with  the  Upper  Felt  Washer.  Place  the 

cymbal over the Cymbal Post and rest it on the Lower Felt 

Washer.  Place  the  Upper  Felt  Washer  on  the  Cymbal, 

followed by the Reversible Nut as shown (Fig. 11).

Tip

The  Reversible  Nut  can  be  set  right-side  up  to  allow  the 

cymbal  freedom  of  motion  (Fig.12-A),  or  upside-down  to 

restrict  the  motion  of  the  cymbal  for  a  tighter  sound 

(Fig.12-B).  Crash  the  cymbal  with  a  glancing  blow  to 

minimize breakage especially when the cymbal is tight.
