Assembly and Tuning
Before assembling the instrument, please observe the following:
When holding and assembling the instrument, take care not to apply excessive force to the keys.
Applying excessive force may bend the keys, resulting in unbalanced pads.
When you assemble the instrument for the first time, you may have difficulty connecting the
joints due to tightness. In this case, apply a thin coat of the included cork grease to the joint cork,
and try again to connect the joints. If the joints still do not fit together smoothly, apply a thin coat
of cork grease to the receiver side as well. When applying cork grease, be careful not to apply too
much.
■ Assembling the Oboe
1. Apply cork grease.
Before assembling the oboe, apply a thin
coat of cork grease to the joint cork and the
entire circumference of the lower part of the
reed tube.
2. Attach the bell to the lower joint.
Hold the bell in your right hand and check
the position of the bridge key for the lower
tube and the bell. Slide the bell onto the
lower joint while rotating the bell.
3. Connect the upper and lower tubes.
Hold the lower joint in your right hand and
check the position of the bridge key. Slide
the lower joint onto the upper joint while
rotating the lower joint.

Caution: Disassembling the Oboe
If you plan to disassemble the oboe into its
upper and lower joints and bell, do not
hold the instrument close to your face or
near other people. If a part detaches unex-
pectedly, it may cause injury or damage.
■ Hints on Tuning the Oboe
The pitch of an oboe is affected by the length
and type of the reed tube, and the length,
width, scrape and gouge of the reed. If you
have difficulty tuning the oboe, experiment
and adjust these elements.
In addition, the temperature in the room and
inside the oboe affect the pitch of the instru-
ment. Before you start to tune, allow the
instrument to adjust to room temperature, or
warm the instrument by holding it in your
hands.
