INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Martin Audio power amplifier. This manual
contains important information on operating your amplifier correctly and
safely. Please take some time to read this manual and familiarise yourself
with the advanced features of this amplifier.
1.
Carry Protection Handle
. Both handles can be used to carry the
amplifier; they also act as a protection for the front panel and the controls.
In fixed installations or where rack front covers are too shallow, they may
be removed by unscrewing the retaining bolts behind the front panel.
2.
Input Level Attenuators
. These controls are used to set the signal input
levels to Channel A and Channel B. When the controls are in the fully
clockwise position the maximum gain of the amplifier can be utilised.
3.
On / Off Switch.
The power switch for the amplifier is located to the right
hand side of the front panel. The amplifier is "ON" when the switch is
Down
. A red LED will illuminate to show the presence of mains power.
Note: The power switch must remain accessible when the amplifier is
installed. The power switch must be turned "OFF" then back "ON" to
restart the amplifier after a protection shut down has occurred. (See
page 18)
