Dear Customer, your decision has been made for a German-quality handcrafted instrument. This instrument is provided with special Carbon-valves with many features. For example all valve-components are fully interchangeable, so that a replacement (in the event of ultimate wear) causes no problem, and can generally be undertaken by the player.
To keep your horn in superb condition, please follow this advice: Lubrication is required for the bearing at the linkage end (not under the valve cap) with a thin spindle oil on the end of a small screwdriver, using a thicker oil or grease for the lever linkages. This should be done once a month.
Finke valve-rotors usually work with no more than water lubricant – to prevent build-ups in the casing the rotors are installed with a drop of thin oil on the surface. If it becomes nevertheless necessary to oil the inside of the valves we recommend the products T2 from „La Trompa“ and “Blue Juice”. They can be applicated through the slides.
Should the instrument not be used for a long time it should be rinsed through with distilled water before use. If a cleaning-brush has been used in this process, always rinse afterwards with plenty of water.
We recommend to clean lacquered Instruments with soft cloth, regular. To remove water drops (on the bell flair, etc), use lacquer-polish. These are available at your dealer. Special cleaning-sets are recommended to clean the inside-tubes.
Should it be necessary to remove the rotor for cleaning, do this as follows with the instruments lying in the players lap, not on a table. Take the bell section away from the body of the horn.
