Installation
Installation involves removing the existing head and hardware, placing the new rawhide head over the shell, and securing it with the tuning lugs. Because this is a natural rawhide product, it is recommended to tune the head gradually to avoid overstressing the material. Ensure the head is centered perfectly before final tightening to achieve an even tone across the striking surface.
