LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY

Bad Cat Amplifiers warrantees our amps and cabs against workmanship or defect for 

life. The warrantee does not cover tubes or cosmetic damage, or wear and tear or abuse.

This warrantee is transferable. Modifying or altering the amp in any way voids the 

warrantee. Shipping to and from the warranty repair center is the responsibility of the 

customer.
We have a new Lifetime Warranty on all new amps leaving the factory. We are extending 

the Lifetime Warranty to all of our pre acquisition amps for $195. Simply send the unit 

back to us and we will have one our technicians go through it from the ground up. And to 

top it all off, we will pay for the shipping back to you. For more information please contact 

us at [email protected] or directly at 714-630-0101

When RETURNING merchandise to the factory, you must call for a return authorization 

number.

HELP SECTION

1) AMP WILL NOT TURN ON

  Check the power to the amp. Check for tripped circuit breakers, unplugged extension 

cords or power-strip switches that may be turned off. Check the fuse. If a dark brownish 

color or no wire can be seen within the glass tube, then replace. The amp may be perfectly 

fine but occasionally a fuse may blow because of high AC voltage surges. After the fuse 

has been replaced with the proper Slow Blow value and if the fuse fails again, the amp 

will require servicing.

2) NO OUTPUT with POWER light ON

  Tubes damaged in shipping will be the primary reason for your amp to not function 

properly. Please give us a call to help guide you through this simple repair.

3) KEEP YOUR AMP LOOKING NEW

  Use a damp cloth to wipe the controls on the front & rear chassis panels. Wipe the black 

vinyl covering with a damp cloth.

IMPORTANT!

FOR YOUR PROTECTION, PLEASE READ 

THE FOLLOWING:

WATER AND MOISTURE: Appliance should 

not be used near water (near a bathtub, 

washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a 

wet basement, or near a swimming pool, 

etc). Care should be taken so that objects

do not fall and liquids are not spilled into 

the enclosure through openings.

POWER SOURCES: The appliance should 

be connected to a power supply only of 

the type described in the operating in-

structions or as marked on the unit.

GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION: Precau-

tions should be taken so that the ground-

ing or polarization means of an appliance 

is not defeated.

POWER CORD PROTECTION: Power sup-

ply cords should be routed so that they 

are not likely to be walked on or pinched 

by items placed upon or against them, 

paying particular attention to cords at 

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the 

point where they exit from the appliance.

SERVICING: The user should not attempt 

to service the unit beyond that described 

in the operating instructions. All other 

servicing should be referred to qualified 

service personnel.

FUSING: If your unit is equipped with a 

fuse receptacle, replace only with the 

same type fuse. Refer to replacement 

text on the unit for correct fuse type. 

          This symbol is intended to alert 

          the user to the presence of 

     uninsulated 

“dangerous 

voltage” within the product’s enclosure that 

may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute 

a risk of electric shock to persons.

This symbol is intended to 

alert the user to the presence 

of important operating and 

maintenance (servicing) instructions in the 

literature accompanying the appliance.

Operation

 

The Leash is easy to use. Just follow these simple steps for years of trouble-free service. Your equipment should be “OFF” while connecting. Plug your 

amplifier into the jack marked “AMP” and your speaker into the jack marked “SPEAKER”. Now, turn on your amplifier. The In/Out switch is true-bypass.

There is a small amount of insertion loss when switching the device “In” (typically1db). Set the Ohms selector to match the output impedance of your 

amplifier and the Ohms rating of your speaker. Using a mismatched load will result in degraded performance. For best results in any case, always match 

the Ohms selector to the amplifier. To help with Ohms calculation, the two speaker jacks are wired in parallel (for use with additional cabinets). The 

large knob on the front controls your overall balance between speaker load, from whisper quiet to maximum loudness. The Leash dissipates unused 

audio power by converting it to heat. An AC power cord operates a cooling fan located at the top of the housing. This fan allows The Leash to operate at 

maximum efficiency under all playing conditions. To prevent damage to The Leash or your amplifier, it is absolutely essential that the onboard cooling 

fan be operating whenever The Leash is in use.
