All models come with a holder marked (FUSE) and are factory configured
for 100/120/ 230/240 only and must be adapted by a service technician for
any voltage change.

Fuse Requirements:

USA @ 120 Volts /60 HZ – 10 Amps, 5 x 20 mm GMC/T/slow blow
Europe @ 240 Volts/50 Hz - 5 Amps, 5 x 20 mm GMC/T/slow blow
Japan @ 100 Volts/60 Hz - 12 Amps, 5 x 20 mm GMC/T/slow blow

IMPORTANT NOTE: Always use slow blow or time delay type fuses.
Do not use fast blow fuses.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In order to operate properly anywhe re other
than North America, the voltage configuration may be easily changed
by moving one or two jumpers inside the amplifier, following the
instructions located on the inside of the top panel. These modifications
should be made by a QUALIFIED technician. Contact your local
distributor for further information.

Speaker Outputs

– These consist of two ¼ inch jacks and an NL-4

connector (sometimes called a Speakon) for each amplifier. The jacks are
wired in parallel. The total speaker load impedance should not go below 2
ohms. On NL-4 connectors, we use +1, -1 connections.

Bridge Mono Output

 – The WTB1000 can also be used in Bridge Mono

mode. There is a separate NL-4 connector for this mode of operation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Use ONLY the Bridge Mono Output when
operating your amplifier in Mono Bridge mode. Using the individual
amplifier outputs when in Mono Bridge mode may cause significant
damage to your amplifier.
