Bass Drum Assembly:
Lay bass drum shell flat on the floor to install heads. Place logo drumhead centered onto the side of the drum shell closest
to the two support legs. Place a hoop over the head and insert the tension rod bolts through the washers then through the
claw and into the 6 threaded receptacles (lugs) on the shell. Head should be tensioned with the tuning key to a resonant
pitch, tighten bolts gradually in a criss-cross pattern (do not over-tighten). Repeat process for the other head. Insert legs
into the bass drum receptacles and adjust stable on the floor. Clamp the bass drum pedal to the hoop on the non-logo side.
Depress pedal to sound drum.
Drum Seat Assembly:
Install seat cushion onto 3-leg base. Adjust seat height so child can comfortably depress the bass drum pedal.
Floor Tom Assembly:
Lay floor tom shell flat on the floor to install heads. Place one 13” head over shell, set one 13 “ rim on top so that it is evenly
seated on the drum head. Line up the holes on the rim to the lugs on the shell and install long tension rods w/washers through
rim holes and into lugs. Head should be tensioned with the tuning key to a resonant pitch, tighten bolts gradually in a criss-cross
pattern (do not over-tighten). Repeat installation process for the opposite side head & rim. Insert 3 long support legs into each
of the 3 receptacles, adjust height & tighten wing nut to secure.
Snare & Stand Assembly:
Expand tri-pod legs to balance stand on floor. Set the snare drum securely between the 3 adjustable arms.
Position the snare drum on stand, as pictured, behind bass drum and to the left of the bass drum pedal.
