unpacking, handling and after care

adjusting the feet and/or spikes

These Blade speakers are packed
one speaker per carton. Prior to
unpacking, please ensure that the
serial numbers of the speakers
supplied match each other.

Then, unpack the speakers
carefully following the instructions
printed on the carton and inspect
for any sign of damage.

Your speakers left KEF in perfect
condition. If any damage is
apparent, you should notify your
retailer or consultant immediately.
Retain the packaging in case a
need arises for you to transport
the speakers at a later date.

You will notice that a special KEF
care pack is included with each
pair of speakers.

Under normal circumstances
your speakers will be
commissioned by your retailer or
consultant, who will have been
trained in their installation by KEF.

KEF strongly recommends that you
do not attempt to level your
speakers single-handedly.

Recruit the assistance of another
adult or consult an authorised
KEF Blade outlet for assistance
which may be chargeable if the
purchase was not made through
them originally.

The spike/locking nut combination
supplied is designed to provide
small adjustments, not
to compensate for seriously
irregular floors.

Each Blade speaker is supplied
with KEF designed substantial
spikes and locking nuts (also in the
care pack). This enables fine
adjustment of level, depending on
your preferred location of the
speakers whatever the floor
covering, carpet, tile or block
wood. In addition to the spikes
and locking nuts each Blade also
comes with pucks to protect
wood floors.

Often, you will find that the
speaker is close to vertical, but
rocks because one spike (or two
spikes diagonally) seems
too short.

If the general stability is good, but
the speaker is leaning to the left,
right, backward or forward, then
equal minor adjustments to the
two spikes opposite to the
direction of lean should be made.

Installation and operation

Installation and operation

This pack contains a cleaning cloth
and all the required accessories for
connecting and positioning your
speakers. The care pack also
contains the unique product build
certificate. This is a valuable
document and guarantees the
quality and craftsmanship of
your speakers.

The cabinets are finished in high
gloss and should be treated with
the same care with which you
would treat fine furniture.
A suitable cleaning cloth is
included in the customer care
pack to maintain the original
finish and lustre.

A spirit level is provided at the
rear of the Blade to gauge when
the speaker is perfectly level.

A rigidly-sited speaker performs
better than one that can move
because it enables the cabinet to
remain fixed while the drive units
are allowed to move as
determined by the source signal.

Best results will be obtained if the
speakers are level and stable.
Check the general stability of each
speaker by gently rocking it from
side to side, front-to-back and
diagonally.
