Caution
Except for when mov-
ing the instrument,
always make sure that
both caster brakes
are engaged.
Playing the instrument without the brakes
engaged can result in the instrument moving
about or unwanted noise. Also, tuning or ad-
justing the pedal without the brakes engaged
is very dangerous. The instrument can unex-
pectedly move or fall over resulting in injury.
5
Transporting and Setting Up the Timpani
n
Transporting
When moving the timpani over a distance, such as
from room to room, make sure that the instrument is
carried by at least two persons.
The casters on the sliding legs are convenient when
moving the timpani short distances over smooth sur-
faces such as when changing stage setups, etc. To
move the timpani, unlock the casters, then slightly lift
the timpani by the lugs so that the pedal frame is off
of the ground and slowly move the timpani forward or
backward as shown in the illustration below.
Be careful not to damage the legs
while moving the timpani.
* Damage may occur if the
timpani is dropped or falls
from a high place.
Caution
Make sure your fingers do not get pinched
between the pedal and kettle when folding the
pedal or pedal base.
Serious injury can result if fingers or feet be-
come pinched.
l
Attaching the Key/Wrench Holder
Insert the key/wrench holder into the mounting
bracket on the side of the timpani opposite of the
tuning indicator. Once installed it can be used to
hold the tuning key and allen wrench.
* Peel off the protective paper on the adhe-
sive tape on the backside of the holder,
and firmly attach the holder to the mount-
ing bracket.

Your Yamaha timpani is equipped with a plastic head carefully mounted and adjusted at the factory.
However, new heads tend to stretch during shipping and storage, so it may be necessary to re-tune the
instrument before using. Please perform the following steps to check and, if necessary, readjust your
instrument.
2
Fully depress the heel end of the pedal. While
holding the pedal in this position, use the sup-
plied tuning key to tighten the tuning bolts one by
one ¼ of a turn (90°) in the order shown in the
illustration below.
It is very important that all tuning bolts be
turned the same amount.
Initial Preparation
1
The area between the kettle edge and the inner
circle of the counter hoop is called the collar.
Please make sure that the width of this collar is
uniform, as shown in the illustration titled “Correct”.

each of the tuning bolts another 1/8 (45°)
turn in the same order as in step
3
.
Repeat this procedure until proper head
tension is obtained then go to step
5
.
5
Move the pedal into an intermediate position,
as shown below, and remove your foot from the
pedal. Confirm that the pedal stays in this posi-
tion and does not move.
6
Tap the head lightly with the mallet.
The standard striking point is shown below.

•Ifthetoeofthepedalmovesdownward
→
The head is too tight. Loosen the head
using the procedure described in step
4
(*1).
The standard striking
point lies at distance B
from the kettle edge,
which corresponds
approximately to 1/4 to
1/3 of the distance
between the kettle
edge and the center of
the head.
Striking point
Pedal
As the toe of the pedal is pressed down, the pitch
is raised.
For details on precise tuning refer to “Adjusting the
Pitch” on the following page.
8
When using the timpani for the first time, be sure to set it up according to the
instructions of “Initial Preparation” on pages 6 and 7.
When loosening the tuning bolts, al-
ways loosen them by double the desired
amount, and then return (re-tighten)
them by half. When the sound lies within
1 halftone below the desired pitch after
loosening the tuning bolts (repeatedly, if
necessary), proceed with step
3
.
3
Lightly strike the head with the mallet about 2
inches (5 cm) from the kettle edge at each tun-
ing bolt. Check which tuning bolt has the highest
sound.
•Pitchof the highest sound is higher than
the tuning note (*2)
→
Loosen the corresponding tuning bolt by
about 1/16 to 1/18 of a turn. First loosen
the bolt by double the desired amount,
and then return (re-tighten) it by half. Af-
ter loosening the tuning bolt, repeat from
the beginning of step
3
.
•Pitchofthehighestsoundis lowerthan

→
Go to step
4
.
4
Tighten the other bolts little by little (by about
1/16 to 1/8 of a turn) until the sounds at the cor-
responding striking points match the pitch of the
highest sound. Please note that tightening one
bolt also raises the pitch at neighboring and op-
posite tuning bolts. Thus, after tightening the tun-
ing bolt with the lowest sound, again check the
pitch at the other tuning bolts before tightening
the tuning bolt with the next lowest pitch. While
alternately tightening the other bolts, do not touch
the tuning bolt with the highest pitch (reference
pitch).
Adjusting the Pitch
n
Head Tuning
1
Tuning is adjusted on the lowest note of the tim-
pani. For this reason, the heel of the pedal must
stay fully lowered during the tuning procedure.
The pitch of the lowest note (and the tonal
range) depends on the size of your timpani. For
example, as shown in the chart below, the low-
est sound of a 26" timpani should be tuned to A.
When tuned properly, your Yamaha timpani will
play throughout its full tonal range with balanced
tension in the paddle.
2
Strike the head and check the sound.
The standard striking point is shown below.

(*2). When the
pitch is approximately the same at each bolt,
repeatedly depress the toe and heel of the pedal
several times.
6
Repeat steps
3
through
5
until the pitch at each
bolt is exactly the same.
7
Check the sound by striking the head as de-
scribed in step
2
.
•Soundislowerthanthetuningnote
→
Tune the instrument by tightening all
tuning bolts by an equal amount (max.
1/16 of a turn).
•Soundishigherthanthetuningnote
→
Tune the instrument by loosening all
tuning bolts by an equal amount (max.
1/16 of a turn) according to the procedure
described in step
3
.
8
Operate the pedal as described in step
5
. If the
pitch does not change, the instrument is tuned
properly.
(If the pitch changes, repeat from step
7
.)
The instrument is now tuned to the lowest sound
(note) of its tonal range. Depress the toe of the
pedal to change to a higher pitch (note).

Pedal Adjustment and
then
n
Tuning Indicator Adjustment.
Adjusting the Pitch
l
Pedal balance spring mechanism
Your Yamaha timpani is equipped with a unique pedal
balance spring mechanism (a coil spring counteract-
ing the tension of the head) which allows you to freely
change the pitch (note) of the instrument. When the ped-
al is moved, the pitch of the head will change, and the
balance spring ensures that the pedal angle (pitch) will
not change when you remove your foot from the pedal.
•Heelmoves up when releasing the footfrom
the pedal after depressing the heel, or the heel
feels heavier than the toe.
→
Turn the spring tension adjustment bolt to
the left (counterclockwise).
•Toemovesupwhenreleasing thefoot from
the pedal after depressing the toe, or the toe
feels heavier than the heel
→
Turn the spring tension adjustment bolt to
the right (clockwise).
Use the supplied tuning key to turn the spring adjust-
ment bolt. Do not turn too many full rotations at once,
and re-check the adjustment every 2 turns by press-
ing the toe and heel of the pedal.
Spring Tension
Adjustment Bolt
Caution
Never place your fingers or foot into the mov-
ing parts or the space under the pedal or base.
Serious injury can result if fingers or feet be-
come pinched.
Note
Do not loosen the spring tension adjustment
bolt by more than 3 rotations at a time, as
the toe of the pedal tends to drop abruptly
after a specific point.
10
The tuning indicator shows where to set the pedal for each note. After tuning the instrument, you must
set each note on the indicator to its proper position.
1
After you have tuned your timpani to the lowest
note of its tonal range, make sure that the pointer
is located within 2~3 mm from the pedal-side end
of the indicator rail.
*
If not, refer to “Adjusting the Pointer Position”.
2
Slide the lowest note of the indicator (“C” in the
case of a 23” timpani*) to the position where its
center line coincides with the pointer.
* “Standard Tonal Ranges for Yamaha Tim-
pani” on page 8.
3
Tune the instrument to the next higher pitch (note)
by moving the pedal, and then slide the corre-
sponding note on the rail to the respective pointer
position. Repeat for each remaining note.
n
Adjusting the Pointer Position
First loosen the pointer lock nut and then turn the ad-
juster as follows:
•Pointerislocatedbeyond thelower rail end
when the heel of the pedal is lowered fully
(lowest note).
→
Turn the adjuster to the left (counter clock-
wise) until the pointer is aligned with the low-
est note of the indicator.
•Pointer movesbeyond the upper rail end be-
fore the toe of the pedal reaches the end of its
stroke, or Pointer does not reach the lower rail
end when the heel of the pedal is lowered fully
(lowest sound)
→
Turn the adjuster to the right (clockwise) to
correct the pointer position as required.

Replacing the Head
Pedal
3
Place the new head with the hoop on the kettle.
When using a Yamaha timpani head, make sure
its Yamaha logo is on the side opposite the pedal.
The hoop must be re-mounted in the same posi-
tion as marked with cellophane tape in step
2
. In
the proper order, tighten the tuning bolts alter-
nately by hand until the head is tensioned slightly.
At this time, make sure that the head and hoop
are centered on the kettle.
Tighten each tuning bolt an additional 1/4 of
a turn using the timpani key. Repeat at least 4
times.
4
Adjust the timpani as described on page 6 “Initial
Preparation” starting with step
2
.
For precise tuning, refer to the section “Adjusting
the Pitch” on page 8.
Cellophane tape
Hoop
Interval for head replacement
When the head is slightly tensioned and its
surface looks wavy or shows dents, it is time
to replace the head with a new one.
The maximum head life normally is approxi-
mately2yearsanddependsonthefrequency
and duration of use. However, the head
should always be replaced before the sound
qualitydeterioratesdramatically.Ifaheadis
left on and used more than two years, the fol-
lowing problems may occur:
• Itmaybecomeimpossibletotunethe
head to the proper pitch range.
• Itmaybecomeimpossibletobalancethe
pedal.
• Themainunitmechanismsthemselves
may become damaged.
We recommend replacing the head every year.
1
Loosen tuning bolts alternately and remove the
bolts.
Caution
Do not touch the pedal when loosening the
tuning bolts (loosening the head). Also, never
place your fingers or foot into space under the
pedal, around its base, or its moving parts.
Changes in spring tension can cause the ped-
al to suddenly move, posing a great danger.
We recommend that you mark the pedal side
of the hoop with a piece of tape, etc. so that the
hoop can be reattached to the same position.
2
Remove the hoop and head together. Be careful
not to lose any of the tuning bolts and prevent
dust from adhering to them. Also, avoid touching
the tuning bolt threads, as they are greased.
* Be careful not to make any scratches in
the edge tape attached to the kettle’s edge.
