To remove a blown or suspect fuse from its fuse holder, use only a number 2 Phillips
screwdriver to prevent damage to the fuse holder. Simply press lightly on the fuse-holder
cap and turn counterclockwise. The cap will "pop" out after several turns. To replace the
fuse-holder cap, once the fuse has been replaced and properly installed in its seat on the
fuse-holder cap, press lightly inward, once the fuse and cap have been inserted in the
fuse-holder body, and turn the cap clockwise until it is firmly seated in the fuse-holder body.
Be certain not to cause cross-threading of the fuse-holder body and cap to prevent
damaging the fuse holder.
DO NOT FORCE THE FUSE-HOLDER CAP INTO THE
THREADS
. Seating of the cap in the fuse-holder
body should
be
easily accomplished
without excessive force.
AC LINE CORD
The AC cord is a 3-conductor, heavy-duty cable supplied with a heavy-duty, molded 3-prong
AC plug. It provides the power to operate all the GFA-565's circuits. Its plug should be
inserted in a standard, 120V/60Hz outlet with a minimum capacity of 15amperes and should
have a dedicated branch circuit. It is not recommended that you connect the GFA-565 into a
branch circuit on which other appliances are used. Since conventional household branch
circuits are
often
limited to 15amperes, when the GFA-565 is used in conjunction with other
appliances on the circuit, you may find the current available for the GFA-565 is insufficient;
particularly in systems using very low-impedance, highly reactive loudspeakers.
NOTE
The GFA-
565’s power cord is supplied with a "polarized" AC plug as required by UL/CSA
standards and the National Electrical Code. To minimize the risk of electrical shock, and to
insure minimal hum from the system, do not defeat the polarity-insuring feature of the plug
(one wide blade and one narrow blade). To prevent electrical shock, do not use the
polarized plug With an extension cord or receptacle, or other outlet, unless the blades can
be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
AC LINE FUSE
The AC LINE FUSE protects the electronic circuits of the GFA-565.
This fuse, normally,
will
blow
only
if
there is
an overload within the GFA-565. Since this fuse has been designed to
