■ The Shoulder Rest
The shoulder rest accessory is supplied to give
you added support when holding the violin be-
tween your shoulder and chin. Refer to the illus-
tration and insert the shoulder rest into the holes
provided (on the rear of the instrument) to suit
your playing position.
• If the instrument can be held comfortably without
the shoulder rest, the use of the rest won’t be nec-
essary.
• The pins on the shoulder rest slightly point outward.
When you attach the shoulder rest, insert one pin
about half way into its hole, and then slightly bend
the shoulder rest so that the second pin aligns with
the corresponding hole, and insert.

Please treat with care.

■ Changing Strings
As the strings get old, sound quality will gradually decrease, and it will become difficult to tune
the instrument. Change the strings as soon as you think they are getting old.
Winding the Strings
The adjuster should be set
to the middle of its adjust-
ment range.
1
Before you string the instrument, set the adjuster
so that it is in the middle of its adjustment range.
(All adjusters)
Pins
• The end of the strings are sharp and can cut fingers. Use caution when changing strings.
• When changing or adjusting strings, do not put your face close to the instrument. The string may
suddenly break resulting in eye or other unexpected injuries.
