Owner’s Manual
Before using this unit,
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland PK-7 Pedal Keyboard.
The PK-7 is a pedal keyboard unit which was designed especially for the VK-88/VK-
8. It provides a pedal keyboard, an expression pedal for dynamic volume changes, foot
switches that let you control various functions of the VK-88/VK-8 by foot, and a hold
pedal to sustain the sound.
carefully read the sections
entitled: “USING THE UNIT
SAFELY” (p. 2, 3) and
“IMPORTANT NOTES” (p. 4).
These sections provide
important information
Features
concerning the proper
operation of the unit.
● Twenty-note pedal keyboard and removable expression pedal
The PK-7 features a twenty-note pedal keyboard for maximum enjoyment of organ
playing. The built-in expression pedal can be removed from the pedal keyboard unit
to make the unit more compact for transportation.
Additionally, in order to feel
assured that you have gained
a good grasp of every feature
provided by your new unit,
this Owner’s Manual should
be read in its entirety. The
manual should be saved and
kept on hand as a convenient
reference.
● Foot switches for controlling the VK-88/VK-8
Two foot switches are built into the expression pedal. During a performance, you can
switch the settings of the VK-88/VK-8 without removing your foot from the
expression pedal or your hands from the keyboard.
● Hold pedal
A hold pedal is located where it can be easily operated by your right foot, for
additional expressive possibilities when playing sustain-type sounds.
● Single-cable connection to the VK-88
When connecting the PK-7 to the VK-88, the PK cable that is supplied with the VK-88
is the only connection required–no need for MIDI cables, analog cables, or an AC
power adaptor. This makes setup quick and easy.

Important Notes
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2 and 3, please read and observe the following:
Power Supply
•
Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter
(such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the
way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible
noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the
electrical outlet.
•
•
The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or
damage to speakers or other devices.
Placement
•
This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
•
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or
otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
355b
•
When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition.
Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely
evaporated.
•
358 Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard. This can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing to produce
sound.
Maintenance
•
For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove
stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly
with a soft, dry cloth.
•
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
•
Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and
connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
•
When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid
causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.
558b
•
To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels (especially when it is late at night).
•
When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will
need to use equivalent packaging materials.
