Troubleshooting

When you have successfully finished assembling the unit, test its operation 
while reading “Part Names and Functions” .
If you have found any problems with assembly or operation, use the 
troubleshooting steps below.

Some parts are left over.

•  The kit may contain some extra parts that are not used, such as resistors 

or capacitors.

There aren’t enough parts.

•  If you have lost some parts, contact us at www.nutekt.org.
•  Also, contact us at www.nutekt.org if any parts were missing or damaged 

before you started to assemble the unit.

I can’t assemble the unit, because I broke a part.

•  Please contact us at www.nutekt.org.

The unit makes an abnormal sound when I tilted it or shook it after 
assembly.

•  A loose screw or other part might be left inside the unit. Open the lower 

case and check the inside.

The volume or jacks are loose.

•  Make sure that the nuts are fastened tightly. Remove the knobs from the 

volume and retighten the nuts.

The sound is distorted.

•  The input levels may be set too high. Adjust the volume level on the input 

device.

A pop noise is heard when turning on the power

•  This product makes a popping sound when the power is turned on, This is 

not a malfunction because the muting circuit is not equipped in pursuit 
of the superior sound. Connect a pair of headphones or the like to the   
jack after you turn on the power.

Replacing the operational amplifier

The operational amplifier can be replaced with a DIP8 type operational 
amplifier. The power supply for the OP amp is a 24

28 V single power 

supply system. When replacing the operational amplifier, be sure that the 
replacement uses the same rated voltage.

  Replacing the operational amplifier with any other operational 

amplifier besides the one included with this kit is to be done on your 
own responsibility.

  Use care when replacing the operational amplifier, so as not to bend 

or break the legs.

  Make sure that the components to mount are faced correctly when 

replacing the operational amplifier. Install the pin #1 of the operational 
amplifier (shown with a mark) so that it lines up with the dot on the 
circuit board.
