Key Points:
- Oil the valves one at a time
- Always turn the valve until it "clicks" and doesn't move after oiling
- If air doesn't go through the trumpet, you haven't "clicked" your valves and they aren't in the correct position]]> 2020-11-06 16:14:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahhughes9/iqktrbnftuk4vozu/wish/898105398 sarahhughes9 https://padlet.com/sarahhughes9/iqktrbnftuk4vozu/wish/898132230 Key Points:
- Polishing cloth (keep fingerprints off weekly)
- Mouthpiece brush (lukewarm water & liquid hand soap weekly)
- Look for the number on the valve (1, 2, or 3) so you can put them back correctly
- Pay attention to how the slides come out
- LUKEWARM WATER ONLY otherwise you may take the shine off
- Give the parts a bath (but DO NOT put the valves in the bath)
- Use the snake brush to clean the pipes
- Use slide grease on the valve slides after giving a bath]]> 2020-11-06 16:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahhughes9/iqktrbnftuk4vozu/wish/898132230 sarahhughes9 https://padlet.com/sarahhughes9/iqktrbnftuk4vozu/wish/905977989 This tool is called a METRONOME.
