1.Using the supplied screws, attach the music stand to the back of the KF-7 as illustrated.

Be sure to use the supplied screws for attaching the music stand.

3.While supporting the music stand with one hand, secure it in place by turning the screws.

*When attaching the music stand, support it firmly with one hand to make sure that you don’t drop it. Be careful, so you don’t get your fingers pinched.

*Do not apply excessive force to the installed music stand.

4.To remove the music stand, support it with one hand while loosening the screws.

*After removing the music stand, don’t forget to retighten the screws.

When connected to Soft, the pedal can be used as a soft pedal.

*Unplugging a pedal cord from the unit while the power is on may cause the pedal’s effect to be applied without stopping. Be sure to switch off the power to the unit before attempting to disconnect or connect a pedal cord.

DP-8

The DP-8 pedal controls the half damper function, a must for authentic piano performances. Switching the DP-8’s function switch to “Continuous” allows you to perform using the half damper function.
