1001RB Series

Installation and Maintenance

.Installation:

· To insure proper operation and to avoid potential safety hazards, place the unit on a firm, level surface. When installing the unit in a rack, be sure the mounting hardware can support the amplifier’s weight. To save space in your rack, the 1001RB’s feet can be

.·	removed using a Philips head screwdriver.
.·	Make certain that proper space is provided for
	ventilation. The 1001RB Series requires at
	least ½ inch clearance above for proper
	ventilation. Never block the fan vent holes in
	the top or front of the amplifier. If the
	amplifier will be installed in a rack or other
	enclosed area, make sure that there is
	sufficient air movement within the enclosure
.·	to allow proper cooling. Consult your dealer
	for more information.
	Avoid installation in extremely hot or cold
.·	locations, and areas that are exposed to direct
	sunlight, or near heating equipment.
	Avoid moist or humid locations.
.·	Remember, power amplifiers generate heat.
	The heat sink fins and ventilation slots that
	form part of the enclosure are specially
	designed to remove this heat. Placing other
	electronic equipment near these heat-
	dissipation systems may possibly affect the
	long-term reliability of both your amplifier
	and the other equipment.

Moving the Unit:

Before moving the unit, be certain to disconnect any interconnection cords with other components, and make sure that you disconnect the unit from the AC outlet.

Cleaning:

When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean, soft and dry cloth. If necessary, first wipe the surface with a soft cloth slightly dampened with mild, soapy water, followed by a fresh cloth with clean water. Wipe immediately with a dry cloth. Never use benzene, thinner, alcohol, or other volatile cleaning agents. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish of metal parts. Avoid spraying insecticides near the unit.

Maintenance:

Your new amplifier is rugged. It was built to give you a lifetime of trouble-free operation, if it is operated in accordance with the instructions contained in this manual. The only maintenance required is cleaning. If you are going to move your amplifier around frequently, we recommend a road case to protect it from scratches and road wear.
