Head Replacement
When the head should be replaced
The head is an expendable item that eventually will wear out and need to be replaced.
Replace the head when the following occurs:
•The head surface is torn
•Slack portions remain in the head even when the head tension is properly adjusted.
Replacement heads (optional):
Mesh Head (MH-12)
Replacing the Head
When replacing the head, use the included drum key or the drum key for your acoustic drums.
* Do not apply excessive force to the sensor and cushion located under the head. Doing so can
interfere with accurate detection, and may damage it.

1.
Loosen the lock nuts on the tuning bolts.
2.
Remove all tuning bolts from the KD-120. Go around and gradually loosen each one in
order (by turning it counterclockwise).
3.
Remove the hoop.
4.
Remove the old head.
5.
Place the new head on the shell.
6.
Place the hoop onto the head.
7.
First lightly tighten bolt ‘a’ in the above diagram by rotating it clockwise. Then tighten bolt ‘b’
to about the same force.
8.
Now lightly tighten ‘c’, and then ‘d’. Tighten ‘e’ and ‘f’ in the same way.
9.
Next adjust the tension of the head. Refer to “Adjusting the Head Tension” above.
* Fully tightening a tuning bolt at only a single location produces uneven tensioning, which may make
it impossible to obtain the proper strike sensitivity and may even result in incorrect operation. Be sure
to tighten each tuning bolt a little at a time, as described in the above explanation.
