2.3. Amplifier Location Selection
CAUTION
The weight of the unit is about 26.5 kg (58.5 lbs.), which should preferably be handled
by two persons.
Position the amplifier near the place where it will be used. You will need an easy access to the command
knobs and indicator's area, as well as to the rear panel cabling.
No magnetic-field sensitive devices (such as microphones) should be located next to the right side of the
amplifier because its power transformer is located there. It is advisable to position the amplifier to the right
of your transceiver.
No temperature-sensitive devices should be located above the exhaust hot air area. This means that the
amplifier should not be located under a shelf or other structure that could impede the free movement of
air away from the amplifier. You may prefer to use the bottom scales of both variable capacitor knobs
(
TUNE and LOAD ) if you install it on a shelf.
NOTICE
Do not under any circumstances obstruct the air intake (rear panel) or exhaust (top
cover) areas of the amplifier. Keep a minimum clearance distance of 10 cm (4 inches)
from the intake and 50 cm (20 inches) from the exhaust openings.
NOTICE
Do not leave accidental paper, cloth or other lightweight pieces around and under the
amplifier. They may be drawn in by the cooling air stream and block the vents. This will
lead to overheating and accelerated material aging, not covered by the warranty.
