Frame Structure :
This Yamaha original design incorporates a sub-frame just below the rocker shaft to deliver greater stability and durability. Drummers will experience smoother, more stable movement particularly in double pedal setups since bearings for both the main and remote beaters are incorporated into the sub-frame.
Features
Single Foot Pedal - Belt Drive, Longer Footboard
Beater Shaft Locker
The teardrop shaped shaft hole holds the shaft securely. The shaft's flat surface keeps the 2-way beater from swivelling while playing.
Beater Angle Adjustment
Loosening the adjustment screw lets you freely adjust the beater angle along with the footboard angle.
Spring Tension Adjustment with Self Lock
One hand spring tension adjustment is easy. A lock bolt secures the setting to prevent loosening during play.
Simple Hoop Clamp Mechanism
A wing bolt firmly tightens the clamp for secure attachment. It also allows the clamp to accommodate different hoop thicknesses.
Spring Roller with Built-in Bearings
Precision bearings deliver smooth, natural pedal action.
Base Frame Tie Rods
Rubber coated tie rod ends prevent the footboard and base frame from becoming disconnected.
Longer Footboard
The Footboard of FP8500 is longer than of FP9500.
