USING THE UNIT SAFELY

* Do NOT place your fingers inside the shell, as you may hurt 

yourself or cause damage to the PDX-8. Or when changing the 
head, do NOT touch any of the internal parts.  Also, do not 
insert your fingers into the hole of the mounting bracket.

Before using the pad, tighten the 
head so that the tension is rather firm.

 

Looseness in the head tension may result in problems such as 
failure of the PDX-8’s rim shots to sound or double triggering.

 

Striking the head when the head tension is loose may 
damage the sensor.

 

1.

 

Use the tuning key to tighten the tuning bolts.

 

Strike the head to check the feel and response.

 

fig.Adjust.e

 

Tighten each tuning bolt one by one, observing the 
numerical order shown in the diagram. Do not firmly 
tighten a single tuning bolt by itself. Doing so will make 
it impossible to tension the head evenly, and will cause 
malfunctions.

2.

 

Fine-tune the adjustment while continuing to 

check the pad feel and response.

 

• On the PDX-8, adjusting the head tension affects only the 

head response, and does not change the pitch of the 
sound as it would on an acoustic drum.

• Head tension may slacken with the passage of time. 

Readjust the tension as needed.
