REPLACING THE FUSE
The TRC-498’s 2-amp in-line fuse
helps protect your CB from power
surges and short circuits. When re-
placement is required, use a 2-amp,
slow-blow glass fuse, such as Cat. No.
270-1023.
Follow these steps to replace the fuse.
1. Make sure the power source and
CB are both off.
2. Hold the fuse holder by both ends,
push the ends together, twist one
end counterclockwise, then pull
them apart.
3. Remove the old fuse and inspect
its condition. If it is blown and re-
quires replacement, insert a new
one of the same type and rating. If
it is not blown, reinsert it.
4. Push the fuse holder ends
together and twist one end clock-
wise.
