Before Using The Pedal Timpani Your Yamaha pedal timpani is equipped with a plastic head carefully mounted and tuned (adjusted to a note) at the factory, and thus can be used after setup immediately. However, new heads will tend to stretch gradually during shipping and storage, resulting in a tuning deviation when you receive the instrument.
Before Using The Pedal Timpani 5 Using the supplied timpani key, tighten the tuning bolts by 1/4 of a turn (90°) in the order shown below. It is very important to always turn all tuning bolts by the same amount. 9 10 ● Toe and heel feel equal → Go to step 11 ● Heel still feels heavier than toe → Repeat steps 8 through 10 ● Heel feels lighter than toe → Head is tightened too much. Loosen the head as described in step 7. Timpani key 11 26”, 29”, 32” 6 20”, 23” Take your foot off the pedal.
Adjusting The Sound Of Your Timpani When using the pedal timpani for the first time after unpacking, make sure to set it up according to the instructions of section “Before Using The Pedal Timpani” on pages 4 and 5. z Head Tuning* 1 (* Adjusting the head tension to a specific note) Tuning is performed for the lowest sound (note) of the timpani. For this reason, the heel of the pedal must stay fully lowered during the tuning procedure.
Adjusting The Sound Of Your Timpani x Pedal Adjustment 6 7 Repeat steps 3 through 5 until the pitch at each bolt is exactly the same. After depressing the toe and heel of the pedal, turn the spring tension adjustment bolt as described below. Check the sound by striking the head as described in step 2.
Adjusting The Sound Of Your Timpani c Tuning Indicator Adjustment The tuning indicator shows to which note the pedal is set. After tuning the instrument, you must set each note of the indicator to its proper position. 1 2 3 After you have tuned your timpani to the lowest note of its tonal range, make sure that the pointer is located within 10 mm from the pedal-side end of the indicator rail. * If not, adjust referring to “Adjusting the Pointer Position”.
Other Features ■ Pedal Adjustment Clutch Using the PAC, you can adjust the rotational torque of the pedal to a comfortable pedal force without degrading the smooth pedal action. In addition, the PAC is useful in preventing undesirable happenings such as slight movement of the pedal when the head is struck strongly causing a small change in pitch.
Moving And Setup Your Timpani The timpani can easily be moved when the third wheel is attached to the pedal section as shown on the right. Attaching and removing the third wheel can be performed easily. To move the timpani on a flat surface, make sure to hold it by the frame section on the pedal side and push it in the direction opposite the pedal (see illustration below). Never hold the instrument by the counter hoop, as this may result in a deformation of the head or the counter hoop.
Replacing The Head 1 To prevent the pedal from being pulled down by the spring force, the heel of the pedal must be kept down (this can easily be accomplished by placing a piece of wood or a softball between the base and the pedal) while the tuning bolts are loosened alternately in the proper sequence. 3 Softball etc. 4 Caution 2 Place the new head with the hoop on the kettle. When using a Yamaha timpani head, its YAMAHA logo must be on the side opposite the pedal.
