CAUTION
Failure to observe the precautions described below can result in
injury and/or property damage.
• Do not sit or step on the rack. The rack can overturn or be damaged, resulting in injury.
• Be careful with your fingers and hands when adjusting clamps, to prevent them from becoming
pinched and injured.
• Be careful around pipe ends and inside. Metal shavings, etc. can injure your fingers and hands.
• Do not place hands or feet under a hi-hat stand, kick pad or foot pedal. Doing so could result in
injury.
• Keep small parts out of the reach of infants. Your children may accidentally swallow them.
• Do not go near the product during an earthquake. Strong shaking during an earthquake could
cause the product to move or tip over, resulting in damage to the product or its parts, and possibly

According to your particular electronic drum kit, select the “DTX10K-X” or the “DTX10K-M” 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-PROX Owner’s Manual.)
The letters at the end of the model name (“X” or “M”) indicates the pad type. “X” represents
TCS products and “M” represents mesh products. Selecting the wrong trigger setup will ad-
versely affect your ability to perform comfortably, since sensing when the drum is hit differs
depending on the pad type. Use the correct trigger setup that corresponds to your particular
electronic drum kit for optimum performance.
• Kick pad output (LEVEL) adjustment:
Adjust the trigger output to your desired setting by using the KP128 kick pad’s level adjustment
knob. For details, refer to the “Adjusting the Output Level” in the KP128 Owner’s Manual.
IMPORTANT
• You can play comfortably by striking near the YAMAHA logo. Adjust the height, angle and ori-
entation 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
will be appropriate by adjusting the direction of the stopper as shown on the right. The direction
of the hi-hat pad will also be appropriate by adjusting the direction of the hi-hat clutch.
• The hi-hat shaft will become loose while you continue to use the hi-hat, and the hi-hat pad may
rotate. Since this may adversely affect performance, screw in the hi-hat shaft periodically and
adjust the position of the hi-hat pad.
