SETTING UP YOUR AMPLIFIER
CAUTION: Before connecting any wires or input/output lines, insure all equipment is
off and no signals are being sent from the input device.
In order to reduce the chances of accidentally damaging the amplier or transducer, please set the
amplier controls to the safety positions described and shown below:
Set the AC Power Switch on the back of the amplier to the “Off” position (see photo #1)
Set the Gain (Volume) Control to “Min” (completely counter-clockwise, see photo #2)
Set the Input Signal Switch on the back of the amplier to the “High” position (see photo #3)
If you are placing the amplier on a at surface (not including mounting the amplier on a
Clamping Rackshelf), you must install the feet supplied with the amplier. Installing these feet will
help provide sufcient cooling to the bottom plate of the amplier.
To install the feet, follow the steps listed below:
Gently place the amplier on a non-abrasive surface with the bottom of the amplier
facing up.
Hand thread one of the feet into a receiving hole, insuring the threads do not crossthread.
When properly threaded, tighten the foot by hand until it is snug.
CAUTION: Do not overtighten the feet. The bottom plate of the amplier is made of soft metal
and the threads can easily be stripped if the feet are improperly threaded or overtightened.
CAUTION: The bottom of the amplier can get hot. Do not place anything directly under the
amplier that is ammable or can be damaged by heat. Failure to install the feet may result in
damage to the amplier and/or the surface upon which it is sitting (not including a Rackshelf).
CAUTION: Insure there are two (2) inches of clearance around the sides and top of the amplier.
DO NOT block the top or side air vents.
