Thank you for choosing this product. Please read and follow the instructions carefully. They inform you
about all the important steps concerning assembly and handling. We recommend you to keep them for
future reference.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- The 14950 is no typical holder stand and you should NOT leave the
- adjusted instrument unattended. In fact, it is a so-called PERFORMER
- STAND, which brings the tuba to a certain height. When using the
- stand, the player must hold the instrument securely (danger of tipping!)
- Always carry out a visual inspection before use; damaged components
- should not be used
- The floor must be suitable, i.e. level and load-bearing.
- Due to the mobile parts, trapping hazards may arise, therefore careful
- handling during assembly, operation and disassembly is
- indispensable.
- The instrument should be placed on the support rubber base with care.
- Always remove the tuba from the support when changing height.
- The parquet protectors are made of high-quality material and are as
- far as technically possible free from plasticisers; for the protection of
- very sensitive floors (possibly certain types of parquet) a non-slip
- underlay should be used if required.

2.3.2 The bigger the base circle (max. ø 780 mm),
