AC Fused Input (21)

The AC FUSED INPUT socket (TYPE IEC Grounded) is a required connection for operating your 
KITCHEN SINK 6VEL at 120V (standard USA household electrical power). The MAINS FUSE requires a 
2.5 AMP slow blow fuse. This fuse protects your amplifier from voltage peaks from your power 
outlet.  

H.T. Fuse (22)

The H.T. FUSE requires a 0.25 AMP (250 milliamp) slow-blow fuse. The H.T. FUSE usually blows if 
your power tubes are bad to protect the circuit from being damaged. 

SAFETY NOTES:

• Always plug your amp into a properly grounded 3 prong AC outlet. 
• Never plug your amp into an ungrounded outlet. 
• Never remove or break off the 3rd prong safety ground pin from the power cord. 
• Never use a damaged or ungrounded power cord.
• Always use the proper value and type fuse according to the rear-panel markings.
• Never attempt to replace the fuse while the amplifier is still plugged into the power source. The 

fuse should only be replaced when the power cord has been disconnected from its power source.
