UNPACKING
Your amplifier should reach you in a substantive, protective carton. On unpacking,
please examine the unit carefully for signs of damage or prior use. Check that all the
front panel controls function mechanically.
The following items should also be in the carton:-
a)
4 loudspeaker plugs
–
2 reds 2 black
b)
2 spare gold plated header links
c)
1 pre-
paid owner’s Registration Card, the lower half of which should be
completed and returned to ourselves.
May we suggest that you retain the protective carton in the unlikely event of the
Amplifier having to be returned to ourselves.
INSTALLATION
This is a class A/AB Amplifier and, therefore, the heatsinks will become quite warm
when the Amplifier is in operation. A free air-flow around the heatsinks is essential if the
Amplifier is not to overheat.
Do not
site the Amplifier in direct sunlight.
Do not
box in unless adequate ventilation is provided.
Do not
cover the heatsink.
CONNECTING TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
Please check that the voltage rating on the back of the Amplifier is correct for your
supply. Connection to the mains varies for the country for which the amplifier is
supplied. In some countries the mains lead is terminated with a captive moulded mains
plug. These plugs will be two or three pin plugs to suit local conditions and regulations.
Where the mains cable is not terminated with a captive mains plug these must be
correctly connected to a two or three pin plug to ensure complete safety.
The mains cable is colour coded as follows:-
3 PIN
BROWN
LIVE
BLUE
NEUTRAL
GREEN/YELLOW
EARTH
2 PIN
BROWN OR BLACK
LIVE
BLUE
NEUTRAL
It is essential that the above colour codes are observed and that the voltage and frequency
of supply conforms to the markings on the amplifier.
