Yamaha DTX920K Assembly Manual

This manual describes the standard assembly procedure for the DTX760K/DTX920K electronic drum kits. It covers assembly and wiring of the kit as shown below.

When you have completed all of the steps described, you will be ready to turn on the drum trigger module and start playing.

Illustrations show the DTX700 drum trigger module.

ELECTRONIC DRUM KIT

DTX760K/DTX920K

Assembly Manual  

EN

• For assembly, you will require four individual packages – an RS700 

Rack System, a DTP903 Pad Set, a DTP904 Pad Set, and a DTX700/

DTX900M Drum Trigger Module.

• This manual describes the process of assembling a drum-pad set and 

drum trigger module to an already assembled RS700 Electronic Drum 

Rack. Before starting the steps below, therefore, be sure to assemble 

your RS700 as described in the Owner’s Manual that came with it.

Before starting assembly, lay a drum mat (sold separately) on the floor. 

Alternatively, you can place cardboard from the drum kit packaging or the 

like on the floor to prevent it from being scratched. This is particularly 

important when using the HS740A Hi-hat Stand and KP100 Kick Pad.

The purpose of the precautions detailed below is to ensure that this electronic drum kit can be used safely without fear of injury or property damage. As a means of indicating the severity and immediacy 

of any risk of injury or property damage resulting from incorrect operation, these precautions are classified as either WARNING or CAUTION. The instructions displayed together with these precautions 

are extremely important in terms of ensuring safety, and therefore, they should be fully observed.

* After reading this Assembly Manual, ensure that it is kept in a safe, convenient location for future reference.

* Be sure to also read the Assembly Manuals and/or Owner’s Manuals that came with your pads and rack.

NOTICE: 

Usage Precautions

• When connecting and disconnecting cables, be sure to hold the plug and not the cable itself. In addition, 

avoid placing heavy items on top of cables and do not allow them to touch sharp edges. Failure to avoid 

these precautions can lead to cable breakage and disconnection.

• Do not climb onto the electronic drum kit and avoid placing heavy objects on it. Failure to observe this pre-

caution can result in malfunction.

• Avoid using or storing the electronic drum kit in very hot locations (i.e., in direct sunlight, in close proximity to 

a heater, or in a closed vehicle) or in highly humid locations (i.e., in a bathroom or outdoors in wet weather). 

Failure to observe this precaution can lead to warping, discoloration, malfunction, or breakdown.

• Avoid cleaning the electronic drum kit with organic solvents, paint thinner, or alcohol as these substances 

can cause warping and discoloration. Instead, we recommend you remove dust using a soft dry cloth or 

wipe clean using a moist, tightly-wrung cloth. If the electronic drum kit is very dirty, first wipe the dirt away 

using a cloth moistened with a neutral detergent solution and tightly wrung. Following this, wipe away the 

detergent solution using a cloth soaked in water and tightly wrung.

Safety Precautions   

Please read carefully before proceeding.

Failure to observe the precautions described below can result in se-

rious injury or even death.

• Young children using this electronic drum kit should be supervised by a guardian to eliminate any 

possibility of injury.

• Holders for cymbal and tom pads have sharp tips. In order to avoid injury, therefore, you should 

take special care whenever handling these components.

• The anti-slip stoppers on kick pads and foot pedals have sharp tips. In order to avoid injury, there-

fore, you should take special care whenever handling these components.

• Be sure to securely tighten nuts and other fasteners when setting up this electronic drum kit. In 

addition, be sure to proceed slowly when loosening nuts. If this precaution is not observed, pads 

may fall off or the rack may collapse or fall over, possibly causing injury.

• Do not setup this electronic drum kit on a slope, on an unstable platform, or on any other unsafe 

surface. If this precaution is not observed, it may topple over or fall, possibly causing injury.

• Whenever setting up this electronic drum kit, ensure that cables and the like are arranged safely. If 

someone were to trip on a cable, the kit could topple over and cause injury.

• Under no circumstances should this electronic drum kit be disassembled or customized. Failure to 

observe this precaution can result in injury or malfunction.

• Do not sit or stand on the rack. Doing so could cause it to fall over or break, possibly causing injury.

WARNING

Failure to observe the precautions described below can result in in-

jury and/or property damage.

• Mind your fingers when adjusting clamps. They can easily be crushed if care is not taken during 

this operation.

• Be careful with the tips of supports, arms, screws, and the like. Fingers can easily be injured by 

sharp tips if these components are not handled carefully.

• Do not place hands or feet under a kick pad or foot pedal. Doing so could result in injury.

• Do not use the electronic drum kit’s rack to hold acoustic drums. Doing so could cause clamps to 

break and the drums to fall off, which in turn could lead to injury.
