DTX540K/DTX520K Assembly Manual
This pamphlet describes the standard procedure for DTX540K/DTX520K assembly.
After assembling the parts and connecting the cords as shown below, you will be ready to turn on the drum trigger module.
• For assembly, you will require four individual packages – an RS500
Rack System, a DTP520C Pad Set, a DTP700P Pad Set*, and a
DTX500 Drum Trigger Module. (*: The DTX520K uses a DTP520P
Pad Set instead.)
• This pamphlet describes how to attach the pads and drum trigger
module to the RS500 Rack System. Before carrying out the proce-
dures described below, ensure that you have correctly assembled
the rack system as described in its assembly manual.
• Although this pamphlet uses illustrations of the DTX540K, the
assembly procedures described also apply to the DTX520K.
Before starting assembly, lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor.
Alternatively, before setting up the HH65 Hi-hat Controller and KP65
Kick Pad, you can place the packages' cardboard boxes on the floor to
protect it from damage.
Before using, please read this assembly manual, and use this product in a safe and proper manner.
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
* Make sure to read the Assembly Manual of the Rack System and the Owner’s Manual of the Pad.
NOTICE
• Make sure you hold onto the plug, not the cable, when connecting or disconnecting the cable. Also,
never place any heavy or sharp objects on the cable. Applying excessive force to the cable may
result in damage to the cable, such as the wires being severed, etc.
• Do not step on or place heavy objects on the product. It may result in damage.
• Do not use or keep the product in places with extremely high temperature (places in direct sunlight,
close to a heater, in a closed car, etc.) or high humidity (bathroom, outside on a rainy day, etc.).
Doing so may result in deformation, discoloration, damage or deterioration.
• When cleaning the product, do not use benzine, thinner or alcohol as it may result in discoloration or
deformation. Please wipe with a soft cloth or a damp cloth that has been wrung out thoroughly. If the
product is soiled or sticky, use a neutral detergent on a cloth then wipe with a damp cloth that has
been wrung out thoroughly to remove any remaining detergent. Also pay close attention so as not to
let the water and detergent come into contact with the cushions used in the product; doing so may
result in deterioration.
