Cabling diagram for the dedicated connection cable (as seen from the back)Roland TD-02KV Drums - fig 35

“CR2” is not used. You can use a separately sold cymbal set (OPTD1C) to add more cymbals. If you are not adding  this, leave the cap attached. Fasten it so that it does not
obstruct your performance.
* Fasten the cables so that they will not obstruct your playing; use cable clips 13 and cable ties 14 . We recommend attaching the clips in the locations shown with a. Make sure to wrap the cable ties around the pipes.
For a left-handed setup
Assemble the drum stand as described in “Assembly for left-handed players” in the “ 2
Assemble the drum stand” section, and then attach the parts and connect the cables as shown in the illustration at right.Roland TD-02KV Drums - fig 36Cabling diagram for the dedicated connection cable (As seen from the back) Roland TD-02KV Drums - fig 37“CR2” is not used. You can use a separately sold cymbal set (OP-TD1C) to add more cymbals. If you are not adding this, leave the cap attached. Fasten it so that it does not obstruct your performance.
This completes assembly and connections.
When you’ve finished making connections, turn on the power as described in “ Quick Start”, and verify that you can hear sound.
Detailed explanation of each part
About the memory clamp

The memory clamp aligns the pad at a fixed height when it is attached.
When shipped, the memory clamp is attached at the recommended position for using the drum safely. Roland TD-02KV Drums - fig 38NOTE
If the memory clamp is moved or removed in order to adjust the position of the PDX-8 (snare), a greater length of the rod may protrude; take care that the protruding rod does not cause injury.
PDX-8 (Snare) Roland TD-02KV Drums - fig 39NOTE
Be sure to adjust the head tension of the pad before use.
Adjusting the head tensionRoland TD-02KV Drums - fig 40

  1. Adjust each tuning bolt a little at a time, moving in order from one side to the opposite side as shown in the illustration. The appropriate amount of tension is one that will provide approximately the same striking response as on an acoustic drum.
  2. Use the drum key to adjust the tension as needed.
