Linn LK140 owner manual 6Positioning, Earthing the LK85/140

Replacing the fuse

To replace the fuse, first identify the correct fuse for your local voltage. This should be:

•3.15A anti-surge for 230V

•6.3A anti-surge for 115V

•6.3A anti-surge for 100V (Japanese version).

Pull open the fuse drawer at the bottom of the mains inlet, insert the fuse in the rear compartment, and close the drawer.

Earthing the LK85/140

The earthed moulded mains lead supplied must always be used with the LK85/140. Never use an unearthed plug or adaptor.

6Positioning

You can position the LK85/140 almost anywhere you find convenient, but the following considerations may be useful.

The LK85/140 is a powerful amplifier and can generate several hundred Watts of heat under extreme use. In cases of overloading or overheating the amplifier will automatically shut down. No damage will result if it does so.

Always ensure there is plenty of air circulation around the amplifier, especially if stacked with other Linn products or stored in a cupboard. If your amplifier does shut down, try increasing the ventilation around the unit and, if necessary, move it to a more suitable location if it keeps shutting down.
