Assembling the DP-970

Make sure that another person is on hand to help with the assembly and setup.

To move the piano, lift it carefully—all the while keeping it level. Be very careful, when you assemble and move the piano, to make sure that you do not drop it on your hands or feet. Should you remove screws, cord clamps, or stabilizer, make sure to put them in a safe place out of children’s reach, so there is no chance of them being swallowed accidentally.

■Check the Parts

Before you begin assembling the DP-970, check that all the parts were supplied.

You will also need to have a Phillips screwdriver.

The speaker box can also be installed so that it faces toward the rear instead of toward the front. Having the speaker box face out the rear of the instrument allows the speakers to be directed toward listeners when the back of the instrument faces the audience.

Take care not to attach the left and right stabilizer to the wrong sides.

4.Raise the entire assembly.

When standing the assembled unit up, grasp near the

speaker box, and gently raise the assembly.

■Assembly Procedure

•At first, assemble the entire unit in a temporary fashion, without really tightening the screws. Then, after checking the overall alignment of the boards (and gently shifting certain parts where necessary), go around and tightly fasten each of the screws.

•Be careful when assembling the DP-970, so as to avoid scratching the side boards.

When securing the screws, lay the entire unit sideways with the rear side of the DP-970 at the bottom.
