Snare pad
1. Attach a clamp bolt to
the snare pad and pro-
visionally tighten (by
five or six turns).
2. Attach the XP80 snare pad to the rod, and then tighten the
clamp bolt to secure the snare pad.
3. Loosen bolts A to D as
shown below to adjust
the height and angle of
the snare pad. When
correctly positioned, be
sure to securely retight-
en the bolts before pro-
ceeding to the next step.
Tom pads
1. As with the snare pad, attach a wing bolt to each of the three
tom pads and provisionally tighten (by five or six turns).
2. Push each of the tom pads onto one of the rack’s tom holders.
Each time, ensure that the tom holder’s rod is fully inserted
into the tom pad’s mounting hole, and then tighten the bolt to
secure the pad in place.
3. Loosen bolts A to C as shown below to adjust the height and
angle of each tom pad. When correctly positioned, be sure to
securely retighten the bolts before proceeding to the next
step.

Drum trigger module
1. Secure the module holder
to the bottom of the drum
trigger module using the
module holder screws.
2. Push the module holder into the holder clamp and tighten the
clamp bolt to secure it in place.
Each cymbal and hi-hat pad
1. Using the drum key, loosen
the stopper’s key bolt.
2. Remove the wing nut, the two felt
pads, and the bolt cover from the
cymbal holder.
3. Place the stopper on the cymbal holder.
* If the key bolt was not sufficiently loosened in Step 1
above, it may not be possible to pass the stopper over the
cymbal holder’s shaft. In such a case, loosen the key bolt
as much as possible without removing it.
4. Replace the bolt cover.
* Turn the bolt cover to tighten it
onto the threaded section and
firmly secure it in place.
5. With the stopper making full contact with the bottom surface
of the bolt cover as shown below, tighten the stopper’s key
bolt using the drum key.
6. Place one of the felt pads removed in Step 2 on the cymbal
holder.
7. Mount the pad on the cymbal stand. Lower the pad into place
with the cymbal holder’s shaft passing through the central
hole. When mounted, the stopper’s pin should rest inside the
pad’s smaller hole.
* If you were to play your cymbal pad without the stopper’s
pin positioned well inside the smaller hole, the pad could
rotate, causing the pin to be pulled out. It is very important,
therefore, to ensure that the stopper is secured as shown
in Step 5 above.
8. Assemble the other felt pad removed in Step 2 to the cymbal
holder.
9. Tighten the wing nut to secure the pad to the cymbal holder.

You can play comfortably by striking near the YAMA-
HA logo. Adjust the height, angle and orientation of
the cymbal pad and hi-hat pad to a position where
you can hit around the YAMAHA logo naturally when
performing. The correct setting position is that the
YAMAHA logo of the cymbal pad and hi-hat pad are
visible in front of the performer. The direction of the
cymbal pad and hi-hat pad will be appropriate by ad-
justing the direction of the stopper as shown below.

Assembling the drum trigger module, cymbal pads, and hi-hat pad
Arrange the hi-hat controller and the kick pad as shown in Example of standard assembly on the other side of this sheet.
Lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor underneath the hi-hat controller and the kick pad. Alternatively, you can place cardboard from the drum kit packaging or the
like on the floor to prevent it from being scratched.
Connect the pads to the drum trigger module.
As described below, connect the output of each pad to the corresponding trigger input jack on the drum trigger module.
Connect the drum trigger module to a power supply.
Setting up the drum trigger module.
1. If a drum mat (sold separately) is not available, lay a sheet of cardboard on the floor to prevent it from being
scratched.
2. Remove the four wing bolts, spring washers, and flat washers from the kick pad frame, and line up each set
nearby in the order of removal.
3. Join the base to the frame as shown on the right, and then secure it in place by assembling the wing bolts,
spring washers, and flat washers removed in the previous step from the base side.
NOTE
For details on assembling the foot pedal (sold separately), refer to the “Setting Up” in the KP65 Owners Manual.

1. Plug the straight ends of the nine-channel snake cable into the trigger input jacks on the back of the drum trigger module.
When using the standard setup, the stickers on each of the snake cable’s plugs will indicate the name of the corresponding pad.
2. Plug the L-shaped ends of the nine-channel snake cable into the corresponding pads.
3. Wrap the cables for the snare pad, the tom pads, the cymbal pads and the hi-hat pad around the cable clips to prevent them from being pulled out.
Excessive bending can damage pad cables. Ensure, therefore, that these cables are not bent at an extreme angle when wrapped around the clips.

1. Plug the AC adaptor’s DC cord into the connector. Hook
the AC adaptor’s DC cord around the cord clip to secure it in
place.
2. Using the cable bands, secure the cables to the electronic drum
rack at the positions circled in the figure on the right. ( )
3. Plug the adaptor’s AC cord into a domestic wall socket.
CAUTION
Excessive bending can damage AC adaptors DC cord. Ensure,
therefore, that the cord is not bent at an extreme angle when
wrapped around the clips. Doing so can cause fire or electrical
shock.

If you secure the cable band from the side away
from the drum trigger module, you can make con-
nections more easily.

Select the “DTX6K-X” trigger setup on your drum trigger module. (For details on the trigger setup
procedure, refer to the “Initial Settings (Trigger Setup Wizard)” in the DTX-PRO Owner’s Manual.)
Kick pad output (LEVEL) adjustment:
Adjust the trigger output to your desired setting by using the KP65 kick pad’s level adjustment
knob. For details, refer to the “Output Level Adjustment” in the KP65 Owner’s Manual.
The selection of the trigger setup is very important. Selecting the wrong trigger setup
will adversely affect your ability to perform comfortably. Use the correct trigger setup
that corresponds to your particular electronic drum kit for optimum performance.
Your electronic drum kit is now ready.
* For instructions on turning on the drum trigger module, producing sounds, and other subsequent steps,
please refer to the Owner’s Manual that came with the module.
