Owner's Manual 3

Internal trim pots for volume can be adjusted using a small standard screwdriver. Clockwise rotation decreases volume; counter-clockwise rotation increases volume. To ensure an even volume balance, it is recommended that you have the instrument plugged into an amplifier while adjusting the trim pots, and check each string's volume by plucking the string after making adjustments.

If you are not comfortable making internal volume adjustments, please refer servicing to a qualified technician or your local Authorized Zeta Dealer.

TELESCOPING ENDPIN AND UPPER BOUT GUIDE

These accessories convert the Cross-Over so that it can be played in an upright position. Simply insert the telescoping endpin into the base of the instrument and turn it clockwise until the screw threads engage and hold it in position. The upper bout guide is screwed in place with the two thumb screws onto the upper back of the instrument, and features thumb screws for adjusting the playing angle of the Cross-Over. The upper bout guide is designed to simulate the contours of an acoustic upright bass, and provides support of the bass by leaning against the player's midsection.

TRIPOD MOUNTING SYSTEM

The optional ZOS-5 Tripod Stand mounts in the lower body cavity, in place of the Telescoping Endpin. While the instrument is mounted on the ZOS-5 Tripod Stand, please be certain that the tripod feet are fully expanded as the instrument could be accidentally knocked over.

LIGHTWEIGHT TUNERS

Gotoh lightweight tuning machines are designed to hold the strings at pitch for long periods of time without needing readjustment. Gotoh lightweight tuning machines have a 20:1 tuning ratio.

STRINGS

Please note: For optimum instrument performance, strings should be changed at least once every month.
