Attaching the Pad to a Stand
Attach the PD-8 to a drum stand.
When attaching the PD-8 to the pad mount, be sure to tighten
the stand fixing screw securely. If any of them remain loose,
the pad could fall off.
When attaching the PD-8 to a commercially available tom
stand, check the dimensions of the rod. Depending on the
dimensions of the rod, it may not be possible to attach the pad
to the stand.
Acceptable rod diameters: 8.5–11.5 (3/8 to 1/2 inch)

the output jack of the PD-8 to the trigger input
