16:INSERT: Connect an external effects device via this jack. Use a stereo 1/4” male Y-cord: ring = send, tip = return, sleeve = ground. See the illustra- tion on the panel to the right for more information.

17:POWER ON LED: Lights when the amplifier is turned on.

18:POWER SWITCH: Turns the amplifier ON in the up position, off in the down position.

19.POWER CORD (rear panel, not shown): Your GFX-1200H is equipped with a heavy-duty ground- ed three-wire power cord. Be sure this cord is prop- erly plugged into a safely wired grounded 120 volt, 60Hz AC power outlet before use. (If your GFX- 1200H was purchased outside the United States, refer to the rear panel for power ratings.) For your safety, never attempt to defeat the ground connec- tion on this cord.

20:SPEAKER JACKS (rear panel, not shown): Use these 1/4” output jacks to connect the amplifi- er to your speaker cabinet(s). Use heavy gauge speaker cables. The GFX-1200H can operate into speaker loads as low as 4 ohms.

21:FUSE (rear panel, not shown): Protects the amplifier against damages caused from a faulty AC power source or other problems. If the fuse blows, replace it ONLY with the same size and type fuse. If the fuse blows repeatedly check the AC source; if it’s okay, contact your Crate dealer for service infor- mation.

Connecting to the Insert jack:

The Insert jack (#16) lets you patch external effects into the amplifier just prior to its power amp stage. Use Crate’s CYC6MS stereo-to-mono Y-cord or an adapter such as Crate’s CA11Y and 2 1/4” mono signal cables to connect to the effect as shown below.
