1.
Open the legs of the tripod base and
then tighten the round bolt .
2.
Loosen t-bolt and pull up the
upper tube high enough so the tripod
stand is able to stand flat on the floor.
Slightly tighten t-bolt (you will
tighten it fully later).
3.
Loosen the square-headed bolt of
the memory lock with a standard
drum key (sold separately). Then
lower the memory lock to the middle
of the upper tube and tighten
slightly.
4.
Place the seat on the upper tube.
Firmly tighten the t-bolt of the
drum seat.
5.
Loosen the t-bolt and adjust the
height of the seat to the desired
position, and then firmly tighten the t-
bolt .
6.
Loosen the square-headed bolt of
the memory lock and lower the
memory lock to the top of the die-cast
pipe joint. Use a standard drum key to
tighten the square-headed bolt of
the memory lock firmly.
The memory lock helps preventing
the upper tube from declining while
in use.
* Keeping the memory lock in the position
allows you to set up much more quickly
from next time as the memory lock
“memorizes” the desired height.
7.
If you need to make further height
adjustments, repeat steps
5
and
6
.
Once the desired height is achieved,
firmly tighten the square-headed bolt
of the memory lock.
