Hi, i´ll need your help again.
I have an Axis double pedal and the piece that conects the main pedal to the slave (cardan i think) aways yield (slips) when i play stronger, like when i play with my band.
I have tried to tension more the screw but it keep yielding. so i put the slave pedal in one position but it aways change...
its normal? i have to tension the screw all i can?

thanks!

Make sure that the cardan fits properly to the slave pedal, because I had the same problem with my double pedals but when I adjusted it, it worked flawlessly.

i couldnt explain vere well. the problem is here

Aha, so you mean that it tend to slip when you are playing at higher speeds?

I actually got the same problem, when I play fairly hard/aggressive it will start to slip and eventually carve into the ax

Well, all I can say is that try to tighten all of the screws all the way around.

make sure the secondary rod sticks far enough in the primary so that all three screws hold it in place.

Try to put in a 'studlock' and tighten it accordingly. Maybe what's happening there is that the grubscrews become loose of the vibration of playing hard & as soon as there's not enough grip it starts to slip.

That's about it for the negative things on the AXIS pedals- all the grubscrews 'eat' their way into the metal when tightened !!!

to Chaosblaster : I don't have the same problem as Malpighi, but for the screws that need a drumkey, I have a problem that is debated there : http://www.blastology.net/f128/drumk...499/#post26224

anyway, do the cardan have a right side and a left side ? the enlightened part on that picture is on the left, and so it is on most of axispercussion website.
I put mine the reversed side (like it is on the axis paper which comes with the pedal), with that "golden part with 3 screws" put to the right. could it explain why I think I have the same problem as Jalmar on this topic ?

(In my case, it doesn't tend to slip when I play, it is firmly hold.)
well, I think I'm not absolutly clear on this case... an answer about the fact that the cardan has a right side and a left side will do the trick.

thanks in advance !

Just tighten it real tight bro, that fixed it for me, BE CAREFUL though, dont thread the screws.
