Caution: This amplifier is very heavy! 

 

Lift the amplifier out of its packing by 
using the two “hand cut-outs” in the 
bottom packing near the transformers. 

 

Or you may find it easier to remove the 
unit using the following procedure: 

 

1.  With the top packing in place, turn 

the box “upside down” with the “flaps” 
open. 

2.  Lift the cardboard box off. 
3.  Remove the bottom packing first. 
4.  Turn the unit the right way up and 

remove the top packing. 

 

Please be careful not to damage the 
small “tape monitor” and “triode” 
switches on the front panel 

 

When re-packing ensure the two hand cut-outs are 
towards the rear of the amplifier. 
If all four feet do not sit level, small adjustments may be 
made by adjusting one or more of the screw feet until 
the unit sits level. 
The feet may be removed if preferred in order to reduce 
the height of the amplifier.  

(Please keep this information for future use).
