• For assembly, you will require four individual packages – an RS700
Rack System, a DTP903 Pad Set, a DTP904 Pad Set, and a DTX700/
DTX900M Drum Trigger Module.
• This manual describes the process of assembling a drum-pad set and
drum trigger module to an already assembled RS700 Electronic Drum
Rack. Before starting the steps below, therefore, be sure to assemble
your RS700 as described in the Owner’s Manual that came with it.
Before starting assembly, lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor.
Alternatively, you can place cardboard from the drum kit packaging or the
like on the floor to prevent it from being scratched. This is particularly
important when using the HS740A Hi-hat Stand and KP100 Kick Pad.

* Be sure to also read the Assembly Manuals and/or Owner’s Manuals that came with your pads and rack.
NOTICE: Usage Precautions
• When connecting and disconnecting cables, be sure to hold the plug and not the cable itself. In addition,
avoid placing heavy items on top of cables and do not allow them to touch sharp edges. Failure to avoid
these precautions can lead to cable breakage and disconnection.
• Do not climb onto the electronic drum kit and avoid placing heavy objects on it. Failure to observe this pre-
caution can result in malfunction.
• Avoid using or storing the electronic drum kit in very hot locations (i.e., in direct sunlight, in close proximity to
a heater, or in a closed vehicle) or in highly humid locations (i.e., in a bathroom or outdoors in wet weather).
Failure to observe this precaution can lead to warping, discoloration, malfunction, or breakdown.
• Avoid cleaning the electronic drum kit with organic solvents, paint thinner, or alcohol as these substances
can cause warping and discoloration. Instead, we recommend you remove dust using a soft dry cloth or
wipe clean using a moist, tightly-wrung cloth. If the electronic drum kit is very dirty, first wipe the dirt away
using a cloth moistened with a neutral detergent solution and tightly wrung. Following this, wipe away the
detergent solution using a cloth soaked in water and tightly wrung.
Safety Precautions Please read carefully before proceeding.
Failure to observe the precautions described below can result in se-
rious injury or even death.
• Young children using this electronic drum kit should be supervised by a guardian to eliminate any
possibility of injury.
• Holders for cymbal and tom pads have sharp tips. In order to avoid injury, therefore, you should
take special care whenever handling these components.
• The anti-slip stoppers on kick pads and foot pedals have sharp tips. In order to avoid injury, there-
fore, you should take special care whenever handling these components.
• Be sure to securely tighten nuts and other fasteners when setting up this electronic drum kit. In
addition, be sure to proceed slowly when loosening nuts. If this precaution is not observed, pads
may fall off or the rack may collapse or fall over, possibly causing injury.
• Do not setup this electronic drum kit on a slope, on an unstable platform, or on any other unsafe
surface. If this precaution is not observed, it may topple over or fall, possibly causing injury.
• Whenever setting up this electronic drum kit, ensure that cables and the like are arranged safely. If
someone were to trip on a cable, the kit could topple over and cause injury.
• Under no circumstances should this electronic drum kit be disassembled or customized. Failure to
observe this precaution can result in injury or malfunction.
• Do not sit or stand on the rack. Doing so could cause it to fall over or break, possibly causing injury.
WARNING
Failure to observe the precautions described below can result in in-
jury and/or property damage.
• Mind your fingers when adjusting clamps. They can easily be crushed if care is not taken during
this operation.
• Be careful with the tips of supports, arms, screws, and the like. Fingers can easily be injured by
sharp tips if these components are not handled carefully.
• Do not place hands or feet under a kick pad or foot pedal. Doing so could result in injury.
• Do not use the electronic drum kit’s rack to hold acoustic drums. Doing so could cause clamps to
break and the drums to fall off, which in turn could lead to injury.

Assembling the drum trigger module and cymbal pads
Assembling the 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.
Assembling the cymbal pads
1.
Using a tuning 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 tuning 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 felt pad that came with the cymbal pad.
* The second felt pad removed from the cymbal holder in
Step 2 above is not required for assembly of your pad unit.
9.
Tighten the wing nut to secure the pad unit to the cymbal
holder.
A cymbal pad’s built-in sensor is located close to the Yamaha
logo found on the top surface. In order to achieve the best per-
formance from your pad, position it such that the area around
the logo can be easily struck. (See the figure above.)
