Fitting/Adjusting Bottom Snare
Fitting New Bottom Snare
Unscrew the top screw and remove side adjuster, release
snare off counter part on other side and slide out if drum,
to refit reverse procedure.
Adjusting and Tuning Bottom Snare
The bottom snare should be checked for level to the head,
the snare should be just touching the bearing edge and
nothing more. To adjust the bottom snare, on the side plate
there are three screw holes, the top screw adjusts the tension
off and on to the bottom snare, the other two screws are to
adjust the tension on either side of the snare so that
the complete snare is working, it is not often that these
two screws would require adjustment, only when a new snare is fitted or if the existing snare has been slightly damaged
by over stretching.
