If the amp will not switch on, please check this fuse first and in case that the inner 
fuse of the drawer will need replacement, please only use those values which are 

labelled underneath the mains jack. The dimension of the fuse is 5x20mm. Also the 
power tubes have their own fuse and an indicator on the back. In case that the 

power tubes are faulty the amplifier will stop to operate and you will need a 
replacement of the power tubes and this fuse. The value of the fuse is labelled to the 

backpanel (0.5A slow blow, 5x20mm).   

     

   

   

The Diezel Company wishes to express their gratitude and congratulate 
you on your decision to purchase the Diezel Schmidt Amplifier.
