 SERVICING    

10.1

:

CABINET FINISH

To remove marks and scuffs use a soft brush. If necessary, a little warm water and detergent can be used but under no
circumstances use a solvent or abrasive cleaner.

10.2:

 DRIVER REMOVAL

Lay the cabinet on its back. Remove the ten hexagonal screws and set aside. Ease the driver from the front of the cabinet taking
care not to mark the front surface. Remove the driver, note the polarity of the internal connections and disconnect the internal
wiring. Take care not to damage the moving parts of the LF driver. To refit the driver, connect the cables from the crossover to
the LF terminals. Fit the driver into the mounting hole, making sure that the internal connecting cables are not trapped or able
to touch the LF cone. Fasten the screws finger tight and then progressively tighten them down with the appropriate Allen key.
Repeat the same procedure for the HF driver.

10.3:

 AMPLIFIER

A fuse is located just under the mains input (fig 1). Replacement is simple and a spare fuse is provided inside the fuse housing
itself. Always use the correctly rated fuse, as indicated on the silk screen-printing. Only qualified and authorised personnel should
undertake any other servicing regarding the amplifier section.

In case of any malfunction of the unit, the first thing to check should be the input connection, more especially if the source has
unbalanced outputs (see "Connecting your speakers" section) as improper connection can result in significant level reduction
and affect the response.
