Caution When Assembling
As bridge keys protrude from the neck, upper joint,
lower joint, and bell on the alto and bass clarinets, be
careful not to damage or bend these parts when assem-
bling the instrument. The bell section and tone hole
on the alto clarinet is thin so please use extra caution
when assembling these parts.
1.
Attaching the bell to the lower joint.
Holding the bottom of the bell in your right
hand, slide the bell section partially onto the
joint.
2.
Hold down the pad plate on the bell with your
right thumb then slide the bell all the way
onto the joint.
When assembling the bass clarinet, insert the
peg at this point to provide stability when
standing the instrument on the floor.
3.
Assemble the upper and lower joints.
While checking the position of the bridge keys,
align the upper and lower bridge keys and slide
the upper and lower joints together without
twisting.
* Make sure the upper and lower bridge keys do not
come into contact with each other.
