Bass Drum Spurs

Set the spurs toward the front of the bass drum as shown above.

Next, extend the spur rods so that they are equal in length and the front of the bass drum is about an inch off the floor.

Note: Once set, you don't have to adjust the length of the spur rods again (unless you want to). To fold the legs, face the spurs backwards and parallel to the tension lugs.

You have a choice of rubber or spike tips to help keep the bass drum from sliding. To expose the spikes, loosen the locking nut (the round metal nut with knurled edges) and turn it and the rubber tip clockwise. Counter-turn the locking nut and rubber tip against each other to prevent the rubber tip from loosening.

Caution: For safety, keep the spikes covered by the rubber tips when transporting the bass drum.

Warning: The spike tips can cause damage to floor surfaces. When using the spike tip option, use a rug or carpet of sufficient thickness to protect the floor.
