years of trouble-free service. Please see Adjusting the Bias and
Replacing Tubes (pages 9 and 10) for special instructions.

Vacuum tubes dissipate a large amount of heat and will result in
very high temperatures:
a. Do not touch the tubes with bare hands during, and
immediately after operation. It could cause severe burns.
b. The I60 features a removable “tube cage”. However, we
recommend that for the sake of safety, you operate the unit
with the tube cage left in place.
c. Do not leave the device within the reach of children.
d. Vacuum tubes are made of glass, and hot tubes will shatter
if a single drop of water lands on it! Care must be taken so
that objects do not fall into, and liquids are not spilled into
the unit.
e. Do not expose the tubes to moisture.
f.
Do not attempt to clean the device with a wet cloth, or any
solvents or cleaning solutions.
4.
The vacuum tube amplifiers are fragile instruments. Do not
subject the unit to excessive shock, smoke, dust, or mechanical
vibration.
5.
Do not move the amplifier while the tubes are still hot. Allow the
amplifier to cool down first before attempting to relocate the
amplifier or to change the tubes.
6.
Do not connect or disconnect the loudspeakers from the
amplifier while it is playing. Turn the amplifier off, and wait a
couple of minutes before making any connections. Before
turning the amplifier on, it should be properly connected.
7.
Do not run the amplifier without the appropriate
loudspeakers connected to it.
8.
This device should be operated at a maximum of 5A current. Do
not replace the internal fuse with one rated higher than 5A.
