Before using this unit, carefully read “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES.” After reading, keep the

document(s) where it will be available for immediate reference.

Owner’s Manual

Caution when setting up

The tips of the cymbal mount and tom holder are sharp. Handle them with

care.

When setting up or storing the stand, be careful not to pinch the fingers you

use to handle the stand.

When setting up, ensure that the tripod of the stand is sufficiently open. If the

tripod is insufficiently open, the appropriate degree of stability might not be

obtained.

If you are using the boom arm in a significantly extended position, stability

will improve if the cymbal is directly above one of the tripod legs.

Likewise, when attaching the tom to the tom holder, stability will improve if

the tom is directly above one of the tripod legs.

When you loosen a knob to adjust the height or angle of a tom or cymbal, the

pipe or pad might drop and pinch your fingers. Use one hand to support the

tom or pipe while you slowly loosen the knob.

To prevent the stand from tipping over or falling, tighten the knobs until

there is no looseness. When tightening knob

or knob

, ensure that the

gears that maintain the angle are firmly meshed.

Do not place in an unstable location

Otherwise, you risk injury as the result of

Be cautious to protect children from injury

It is dangerous to carelessly approach a

drum set. The drum set and the stands

are heavy, and use many metal parts that

have sharp protrusions. A person who

approaches carelessly might accidentally bump,

catch, or trip themselves.
Additionally, if the drum set or stand falls over, it

might scratch musical instruments or furniture. Take

particular care not to allow children to play near a

drum set.

Do not drop or subject to strong impact

Otherwise, you risk causing damage or

malfunction.

Tighten screws firmly

To prevent the stand from tipping or

falling down during playback, make sure

that all screws are firmly tightened. When

adjusting the angle of a component

equipped with a gear, such as a cymbal mount,

make sure that the gears are correctly engaged

when you tighten them.
If you forcibly tighten a screw when its gears are not

meshed, vibration during performance might cause

the cymbal or other item to fall.

Insert pipes securely before fastening them

It is dangerous to fasten a pipe that is

nearly pulled out of the stand. Verify that

the pipe is securely inserted into the pipe

holder, and then turn the knob to fasten it.

CAUTION

Use only stand manufactured by Roland

This stand for use only with specific Roland

musical instruments. See apparatus

instructions. Use with other models is

capable of resulting in instability causing

possible injury.

Evaluate safety issues before using stands

Even if you observe the precautions listed

in this owner’s manual, it is possible for

the stand to fall over depending on the

conditions of use. Check the entire setup

for safety before use.

Route all power cords and cables in such a way as to

prevent them from getting entangled

Injury could result if someone were to

trip on a cable and cause the unit to fall

or topple.

Disconnect all cords/cables before moving the unit

Damage or malfunction may result if you

fail to disconnect all cables before moving

the unit.
