Instrument Maintenance
■ Once or Twice a Month Main-
tenance
● Apply a small amount of key oil (sold sepa-
rately) to the mechanism then move the keys
to allow the oil to spread evenly.
* Do not apply too much oil.
* Completely remove any oil on key surfaces.
● Remove dirt from the side surfaces of keys
and key posts. Use a small piece of gauze to
wipe the surfaces taking care not to place any
excessive pressure on the keys.
* Make sure that the pin springs, key cork, etc.,
are not effected when wiping the instrument.
Key Post
● Use a tone hole cleaner (sold separately) to
remove fine dirt or dust from between the
keys.
* Be careful not to damage the pads.

■ Cleaning the Neck
(Once Every Six Months)
The neck should be cleaned once about
every six months.
1.
Make a lukewarm soap solution mixing brass
soap (sold separately) with warm water (30
to 40 degrees Centigrade: 86 to 104 degrees
Fahrenheit) in a soap to water ratio of 1:10 or
1:15.
* Do not put the neck directly into the brass soap/
water solution.
2.
Use a screwdriver to remove the key from the
neck.
3.
Wrap the cork section with adhesive tape to
protect it from the brass soap/water solution.
* Take care to keep the cork from getting wet
which may result in the cork becoming de-
formed.
4.
Apply some of the soap solution to the brush
that is supplied with your saxophone cleaning
kit (sold separately) and scrub the interior of
the neck.
5.
After the dirt is removed, apply some clean
water to the brush to remove any remaining
dirt and the brass soap from the neck interior.
6.
After removing all the water from the neck
interior, dry with a cleaning swab drawn through
the neck to remove all moisture.
* The neck on the soprano saxophone is narrow
making it hard to draw the swab all the way
through. Do not force the swab past the point
where it stops in the neck.
