CAUTION
THE PREAMPLIFIER AND POWER SUPPLY CONTAIN NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS. DO NOT
REMOVE THE BOTTOM PLATES OR CHASSIS COVERS. LETHAL VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT
WITHIN THE CHASSIS. DO NOT OPERATE THE UNITS IF THEY ARE WET.
VACUUM TUBES BECOME HOT ENOUGH TO CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS. NEVER TOUCH A TUBE
WHEN THE UNIT IS ON. IT MAY TAKE SEVERAL MINUTES FOR THE TUBES TO COOL DOWN
AFTER THE UNIT IS SWITCHED OFF. IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT THE TUBE COVERS
BE LEFT IN PLACE AT ALL TIMES.
THE GLASS COVERS WILL BECOME HOT IN NORMAL OPERATION. DO NOT SET OR SPRAY
ANYTHING ON THEM.
THE AMPLIFIER AND POWER SUPPLY ARE HEAVY. IT IS ADVISABLE TO HAVE ASSISTANCE IN
UNPACKING, MOVING, AND SETTING UP. BE SURE TO USE PROPER LIFTING TECHNIQUES TO
AVOID BACK STRAIN AND INJURY. BE CERTAIN TO INSTALL IT IN A SECURE LOCATION FROM
WHICH IT CAN NOT FALL OR TIP OVER.
