Product Detail
The industry - standard DWCP5000AD4 Delta IV Accelerator Single Bass Drum Pedal has been reengineered for even greater performance. We've always been about innovation, and it was time for major upgrades. The standout improvement is the Tri - Pivot Toe Clamp. With three independent 360 - degree rotating rubber pads, it firmly grips bass drum counter hoops of almost any diameter and thickness from top and bottom, ensuring zero slippage. Add a new textured rubber grip pad on the base plate, and you get an unbeatable system for attaching the pedal to the drum. To make the pedal even better, we added a Dual Bearing Spring Rocker, making it quicker and more responsive. The 5000 Series bass drum pedals come with a host of refinements. You can choose from different drive systems, and they feature aluminum hex shafts, pedal plates, linkages, a 101 two - way beater, and built - in spurs. These pedals are customizable to fit every player's needs. The Accelerator™ (AD4) drive system offers an eccentric motion. It shortens the stroke length, increasing the pedal's velocity, and is great for situations needing speed and sensitivity. Key features include DW's patented Delta Ball - Bearing Hinge, a lightweight aluminum design with ball bearings on both sides. The AD4 and TD4 pedals have a Dual - Bearing Spring Rocker for ultimate smoothness. The New Tri - Pivot Toe Clamp keeps the pedal and drum connected regardless of hoop size or angle, and comes with a convenient clip and drum key. DW's single post casting design on double pedals allows easy movement between the pedal and hi - hat and simultaneous play. The unique Universal Assembly (with memory lock) is made of aircraft - grade aluminum, precision - ground, heat - treated, and honed. The 5002 Double Pedal comes with a new nylon carry case, and the new non - skid rubber grip keeps the pedal in place and is easily adjustable.
Using your DW Delta IV Accelerator AD4 Single Bass Drum Pedal is straightforward. First, use the Tri - Pivot Toe Clamp to attach the pedal to the bass drum. Make sure it grips the counter hoop firmly from both the top and bottom. The new textured rubber grip pad on the base plate will help keep the pedal stable on the floor. When you're ready to play, step on the footboard. The Accelerator™ (AD4) drive system will give you increased speed and sensitivity. Remember, the Dual Bearing Spring Rocker makes the pedal quicker and more responsive. If you're using a double pedal, the single post casting design allows for easy movement between the pedal and the hi - hat, and you can play the pedals at the same time. For maintenance, keep the pedal clean. Wipe it down after each use to remove any dirt or debris. Check the ball bearings in the Delta Ball - Bearing Hinge regularly to ensure smooth operation. If you notice any issues with the pedal's movement or the toe clamp's grip, use the included drum key to make adjustments. Store the pedal in a dry place, and if you have the 5002 Double Pedal, use the nylon carry case to protect it during transportation.
