Quick Start
The bottom panel of the TD-10 has a slot that allows expan-
sion boards to be installed.
Install only the specified circuit board(s) (WAVE & SYSTEM
EXPANSION BOARD TDW series).
1. Always turn the TD-10 off and unplug the power cord
before attempting installation of the circuit board (WAVE
& SYSTEM EXPANSION BOARD TDW series).
2. Remove only the four screws as indicated below, and
open the cover located on the bottom of the TD-10.

3. Check that the plastic board holders are positioned as
shown figure. Rotate them if necessary.

4. While positioning the holes on the board over the board
holders, carefully insert the connector on the board into
the socket on the TD-10. Make sure the connector is
securely connected, and that all three board holders pro-
ject through the holes.
* Do not touch any of the printed circuit pathways or connection
terminals.
* Never use excessive force when installing a Expansion Board. If
it doesn’t fit properly on the first attempt, remove the board and
try again.
5. Use the Installation Tool supplied with the Expansion
board to turn the holders in the LOCK direction, so the
board will be fastened in place.

* When Expansion Board installation is complete, double-check
your work.
(To remove the Expansion board, turn the board holders in
the UNLOCK direction, and lift up the board using the pro-
vided tool. Remove the board and secure the cover plate.)
6. Secure the cover plate using the four screws removed in
step 2.
●Immediately turn the power off, and request servic-
ing by your dealer or qualified Roland service per-
sonnel when:
•Objects (such as screws) have fallen into, or liquid has
been spilled on to the TD-10; or
•The TD-10 has been exposed to rain (or otherwise has
become wet); or
•The TD-10 does not appear to operate normally or
exhibits a marked change in performance.
Never open the bottom cover of the TD-10 by yourself.
●To avoid the risk of damage to internal components that
can be caused by static electricity, please carefully observe
the following whenever you handle the board.
•Before you touch the board, always first grasp a metal
object (such as a water pipe), so you are sure that any
static electricity you might have been carrying has been
discharged.
•When handling the board, grasp it only by its edges.
Avoid touching any of the electronic components or
connectors.
