Operating Instructions
•
Always connect the loudspeaker to the correct speaker output jack
impedance prior to turning the unit ON.
•
Use only correct 2-conductor speaker wire (16 gauge or greater) with
mono ¼” ends. The use of coaxial instrument cable (guitar cord) for
connecting speakers will invalidate your warranty and may damage your
amplifier.
•
Always connect the unit to the proper power source and use a grounded
outlet, otherwise a shock hazard may result, especially when the unit is
connected to other equipment. Domestic units should be connected to
115VAC, 60 Hz. Connection to improper line voltage will cause
permanent damage.
•
Do not expose this unit to rain or excessive moisture. This may cause a
shock hazard or damage to the unit.
•
Do not block the ventilation grilles on the rear panel of the amplifier head
or top panel of the combo amp.
•
Do not touch the output tubes while the unit is ON, severe burns can
occur.
CAUTION: Use only one speaker output jack at a time. Using more
than one jack at a time will overheat your output transformer.
WARNING: You MUST have a speaker load connected to this amp at
all times. Operating the Custom 18P with no load will burn out your
output tubes and could destroy the output transformer. This will void
your warranty!
SAFETY NOTICE: Do not open the unit. There are no user serviceable
parts inside the unit. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
Extremely high voltages are present inside this unit that may result in
severe injury or death.
