MAINTENANCE
The Rogue Tempest has been designed to provide many years of enjoyable and reliable service. The greatest care has been taken to select vacuum tubes that provide superior sound and ensure long life. However, at some point in time, the tubes will wear out. The factory- installed tubes should last thousands of hours. Should it become necessary to replace a tube, follow the instructions listed below.
Replace Tubes by :
1)Turn off power at switch.
2)Wait one hour for dangerous voltages to dissipate.
3)Unplug power cord from wall socket.
4)Remove the top cover. See figure 2.
5)Using a glove or clean dry cloth, carefully remove the tubes from their sockets - DO NOT TOUCH ANY OTHER ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS.
6)Obtain and insert a new set of tubes. It is recommended that a new set of tubes be obtained from Rogue. If tubes are obtained from another source, follow the diagram in figure 3 for tube type.
7)Insert new tubes in sockets using a glove or cloth. See figure 3 for locations.
No other items in the unit are designed to be user serviceable.
WARNING - This amplifier uses voltages that could cause injury or death. Never open the amplifier while it is plugged in, and always wait at least one hour after turning the unit off to unplug and open the unit. Lethal voltages can remain in the electronics after the unit is unplugged
