OTHER FEATURES
PEDAL ADJUSTMENT CLUTCH
Using the PAG, you can adjust the rotational torque
of the pedal to a comfortable pedal force without
degrading the smooth pedal action. In addition, the
PAG is useful in preventing undesirable happenings
such as slight movement of the pedal when the head
is struck strongly causing a small change in pitch.
The РАС (Pedal Adjustment Clutch) is an original
Yamaha mechanism that enables you to adjust the
pedal’s rotational torque (the force required to move
the pedal) by altering the amount of friction within the
pedal balance spring mechanism.
• РАС Adjustment
Use the timpani key to turn the PAG adjustment bolt
as follows:
Turn the PAG adjustment bolt to the right (clockwise)
to tighten the pedal movement.
To return the tightened pedal movement to the initial
rotational torque setting, turn the PAG adjustment
bolt to the left (counterclockwise).
* Be sure to turn the timpani key using one hand
only.
Do not use both hands or an additional tool.
The TP-SOxx (H/G) / TP-70xx (H) series use a
wing bolt on the PAG adjustment system.
The pedal cannot be locked with the PAG,
even at its tightest position.
(Do not try to use the PAG for locking the
pedal, for example to prevent the toe of the
pedal from jumping up when the head is re
moved.)
The PAG adjustment bolt has limit positions in
both turning directions. If the bolt is hard to
turn, do not force to overtighten it because this
may cause damage to the mechanism.
