5051 Inductor EQ / Compressor
Thank you for your purchase of the 5051 Inductor EQ / Compressor. Everyone at Rupert Neve Designs
hopes you enjoy using this tool as much as we have enjoyed designing and building it. Please take note
of the following list of safety concerns and power requirements before the use of this product.
Safety
It’s usual to provide a list of “do’s and don’ts” under this heading but mostly these amount to common
sense issues. However here are some reminders:
Don’t operate your 5051 module in or around water! Electronic equipment and liquids are not good
friends. If any liquid is spilled such as soda, coffee, alcoholic or other drink, the sugars and acids will
have a very detrimental effect. Sugar crystals act like little rectifiers and can produce noise (crackles,
etc.). SWITCH OFF IMMEDIATELY because once current starts to flow, the mixture hardens, can get very
hot (burnt toffee!) and cause permanent and costly damage. Please contact support as soon as possible
at [email protected] for resolution.
Safety Instructions: 1) Read these instructions.
2) Keep these instructions.
3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8) Do not install near any heat source such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding
prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit
into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs convenience
receptacles and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
13) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as when power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
14) Do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.
15) The apparatus shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
