■ About the Icons

: This icon indicates points which should be paid attention to.

Do not throw or swing the instrument when others

are close by.

The mouthpiece or other parts may fall off hitting other people.

Always treat the instrument gently.

Keep the oil, polish, etc., out of children's mouths.

Keep the oil, polish, etc., out of children's reach and do main-

tenance when children are not present.

Be aware of climatic conditions such as tempera-

ture, humidity, etc.

Keep the instrument away from heat sources such as heaters,

etc. Also, do not use or store the instrument in any extreme

conditions of temperature or humidity. Doing so may result

in damage to key balance, linkage, or pads, resulting in prob-

lems during performance.

Never use benzene or thinner for maintenance on

instruments with a lacquer finish.

Doing so may result in damage to the finish's top coat.

In regards to brass instruments with a plate finish, the color of the finish may change over time however, it should be

of no concern in regards to the instrument's performance. Discoloration in its early stage can easily be removed with

maintenance. (As discoloration progresses, it may be difficult to remove.)

* Please use the accessories that are specified for use with the particular type of finish found on the instrument. Also, metal polishes remove a

thin layer of the finish's top coat which will make the finish thinner. Please be aware of this before using polish.
