BE COOL
The resonance chambers of all
instruments require the same care.
Store away from direct sun and heat.

KEEP IT CLEAN
Wipe xylophone bars occasionally
with a good quality furniture polish,
preferably one with a lemon base.
Wipe glockenspiel or metallophone
bars occasionally with a lightly
oiled cloth. Bore oil for woodwind
instruments is a good choice.
This will help prevent rust.
NO ROUGH STUFF
BM1600
BX1600
If rust exists on glockenspiel or
metallophone bars, do not use an
abrasive. Clean with a good metal
polish; then apply oil. Bore oil for
woodwind instruments is a good
choice.
FROM THE TOP
When removing bars from a pitched
instrument, grasp the top of the bar
and lift it toward you.This prevents
pins from being bent and lessens the
chance of the bar being dropped.

If a bar is buzzing when played, the
problem is either with the bar or the
resonance box.To determine which it
is, move the buzzing bar to another
location on the resonance box where
there is not a buzzing problem. If the
bar still buzzes in the new location, it
may need to be replaced. If the bar
does not buzz in the new location,
the problem is the resonance box.
Run a bead of silicone caulk or wood
glue along the seams and let it dry.
Do not replace the bar or play until
it is completely dry.
