Before You Play
■ Attaching the Screw-On Bell
When attaching the screw-on bell, always hold
the bell by its mid section and assemble. Do
not over-tighten.
■ Lubrication
Oiling the Rotors
1. While holding the levers down, remove the
valve slides then apply rotor oil to the ro-
tors as shown in the illustration below (a
few drops per rotor).
* Apply oil if the lever does not work
smoothly.
* When applying oil, do not let the oil mix
with the slide grease adhering to the valve
slide’s interior.
2. Move the levers so that the oil is spread
evenly.
■ Attaching the Mouthpiece
Gently insert the mouthpiece into the
mouthpipe.
* Never force the mouthpiece into the
mouthpipe. The mouthpiece may become
stuck in the mouthpipe.
