Thread the bottom nut back onto the stem until it stops.4. Adjust the lower of the two knurled nuts at the top of the clutch to achieve thedesired space between the cymbal and the felt washers and lock the position bytightening the upper knurled nut against the lower one.5. Loosen the nut at the cymbal seat and remove top felt only. Place the bottom hi-hatcymbal on the cymbal seat located at the top of the upper tube so that the upper rodcomes through the mounting hole in the cymbal and the bell rests on the cymbal seatfelt. Place the felt and the nut back over the rod and tighten the nut.6. Place the clutch/cymbal assembly (finished in Step 4) over the rod so that the topcymbal rests on top of the bottom cymbal.7.

By using different combinations of the heel sections, the heightof the heel can be adjusted independently of the angle of thefootboard. The “Elevator” positions range from normal (#1) andslightly elevated (#2-3) to raised (#4-7) and extreme (#8-9). Posi-tion #8, for example, is recommended for achieving a smoother,more effortless heel-toe sliding technique, while positions #2 and#3 offer a subtle but effective way to increase control.To install the Elevator heel sections, first turn the pedal overand remove the three screws holding the original heel (A) to thepedal plate. In order to loosen chemical lock holding the threescrews, you may first need to heat them with a hair dryer for 2-3 minutes. Place additional Elevator heelsections (B, C) either below or above the original section and re-attach the stacked heel sections using thelonger screws (provided). The following chart indicates which screws (supplied) should be used in conjunc-tion with the Elevator heel sections to modify the height of your heel.heel positionheel sections top screws bottom screws#1 A 3/4” -#2 A/B 3/4” -#3 B/A 7/16” 7/16”#4 A/C - 1 1/4”#5 A/C 3/4” 7/16”#6 A/C/B 3/4” 3/4”#7 B/A/C 7/16” 1 1/4”#8 C/B/A - 1 1/2”#9 C/B/A 1 1/4” 7/16”1 2 34 5 67 8 9ABC505 Drop-Lock Clutch(379 Standard Clutch on 9503LB)Hi-Hat RodCymbal SeatCymbal Angle AdjustmentHi-Hat TubeMG-2 Mega Clamp (with tube)(776L V-V DogBone™ on 9503LB)Cable Tension AdjustmentCable HousingTube ReceiverCable (2’, 4’, 6’, 8’ or 10’)Rotating Leg AssemblyBase CastingAdjustable SpursFootboard AssemblyPedal Plate9502LBMG-1 Mega Clamp(9502LB Only)(Cymbal Stand not included)
