Hi Hat Clutch Mounting
Regardless of which type of hi hat stand you choose, you will mount the top hi hat cymbal onto
your hi hat clutch. Almost all hi hat arms and stands come with a clutch. You can use any
clutch you like including a “drop clutch”. All you have to do is replace each standard felt
washers with two Smartrigger rubber washers.

installed
The dual washers on the top and bottom of the top hi hat cymbal allow for a more natural give
and swing than if we used two solid rubber washers.
Installing the Hi Hat Cable
The included stereo cable with two straight ends should be used for the hi hat connection to
your drum module. Follow these steps to install the hi hat cable:
1. Place the hi hat bottom cymbal on your hi hat stand or hi hat arm.
2. Install your hi hat top cymbal and clutch with 4 included rubber washers as shown
above.
3. Connect one end of the included 5 foot cable to the hi hat input on your module.
4. Pass the cable through one of the holes in the bottom hi hat cymbal.
5. Plug the other end into to the trigger housing of the top cymbal. The offset jack on
the trigger housing should leave enough clearance for the cable to pass by the hi
hat’s mounting rod.
6. Carefully place the top hi hat with installed clutch onto your hi hat stand.
