MDV-3
9 Volt DC operation: Your MDV-3 comes with the finest power supply available, the Fulltone FPS-1 Regulated wall-wart 9VDC power supply.
You may ONLY use a 9 volt adapter having the Industry standard 2.1mm x 5.5mm sized barrel connector that is configured Center Negative.
The universal symbol for a “Center Negative” DC jack is the following: 99% of all pedals sold use this for the power supply.
If you use a pedalboard Power supply, make sure to use one that is “Regulated” and has “Isolated outputs” (for example: the Voodoo Labs
PedalPower2) so that exactly 9.0 volts DC is supplied. If you use a non-regulated 9VDC power supply, the MDV-3’s bulb will either be brighter
or dimmer than is recommended and will not perform correctly. Warning! Do not use any voltage other than 9VDC. The MDV-3 has circuitry
that converts the 9 volts up to 18 volts inside the pedal, using other than 9VDC will damage or destroy your pedal and may cause a fire!
Light Source Trimmer control: WARNING! This trimmer allows you to fine-tune the amount of current that gets to the light bulb thus adjusting
the amount of pitch-bend Vibrato and Phasing.This is set at our shop and should not be touched but (if need be) should only be adjusted
by someone who understands the nature of the circuit and how the Lightbulb affects the overall sound. The Trimmer is accessible by removing
the four screws holding the rubber feet and removing the bottomplate. Use a small slotted or Phillips-head screw driver to turn the Trimmer slightly
Counter Clock-Wise (CCW) to INCREASE bulb brightness, increasing the Phase swoosh.Turn slightly CW to DECREASE bulb brightness
and “Phase Swoosh.” You have to use your ears, but our optimal setting is marked on the trimmer should you want to return to the factory setting.

Treadle Adjustment: The Treadle is the gas-pedal-looking pad allowing changing of the speed with your foot. Fulltone Treadles (unlike others)
are fully adjustable to either move easily or with more resistance depending on how tight the Nylok Nut on the treadle axle is set. (see Diagram 2)
To Loosen the feel of your treadle, loosen the Nylok Nut a bit. To tighten the feel of the treadle, tighten it a bit. WARNING! This nut must be set
firm enough so that the treadle stays put and does not fall down on its own, which would result in an unintended change in your pedal’s speed!
