of Your Oboe
For daily care, wipe the entire length of the body with a
polishing cloth (YAC 1099P), being careful not to apply
pressure to the keys. Wipe down the keys, taking care
not to scratch them or damage the pads.
Cleaning
Use a tone hole cleaner
(YAC 1049P) to clean the
space under and between
the keys.
Regular Maintenance
Because the oboe has the most complex structure
of all wind instruments, minor temperature and/or
humidity changes as well as exterior pressure can affect
the wood and key mechanisms. We recommend an annual
visit to your local repair technician for oiling the bore and
regular adjustments.
Storing the Instrument
The case should always be used for storing the instrument
after playing and for transporting. Be sure to remove the
reed and store it properly. Do not put anything in the case
that could place pressure on the instrument.
To keep your instrument in optimum playing condition, have it
cleaned and inspected by a qualified repair technician anually.
