How to change the battery:

To change the battery, remove the thumb screws on 

the top of the pedal and remove the battery compart-

ment cover. Remove the old battery and replace it 

with a new 9V Alkaline battery.  Replace battery in 

the same area as the old battery was located.  Place the 

battery compartment cover on the pedal and re-insert 

the thumb screws.  

Save yourself tons of money in batteries by using 

the Rocktron DC OnTap Universal Power Supply 

to power this pedal (sold seperately).  The Rocktron 

DC OnTap provides a constant flow of power to the 

pedal, unlike a battery that will degrade over time.  

The Rocktron DC OnTap Univeral Power Supply can 

also power up to 20 pedals and can be used with both 

110V and 220V power sources.  

Check, www.rocktron.com for more information on 

the DC OnTap and where to purchase.
