Introduction

Assembling the F-100

Make sure that another person is on hand to help with the assembly and setup.

To move the piano, lift it carefully—all the while keeping it level. Be very careful, when you assemble and move the piano, to make sure that you do not drop it on your hands or feet.

Always carry out this procedure with the F-100 lying horizontally, with the rear panel facing down.

Check the Parts

Before you begin assembling the F-100, check that all the parts were supplied.

You will also need to have a Phillips screwdriver.

The speaker box can also be installed so that it faces toward the rear instead of toward the front. Having the speaker box face out the rear of the instrument allows the speakers to be directed toward listeners when the back of the instrument faces the audience.

Assembly Procedure

At first, assemble the entire unit in a temporary fashion, without really tightening the screws.

Then, after checking the overall alignment of the boards (and gently shifting certain parts where necessary), go around and tightly fasten each of the screws.

Be careful when assembling the F-100, so as to avoid scratching the side panels.

When securing the screws, lay the entire unit sideways with the rear side of the F-100 at the bottom.

1.Tighten the screws on one of the side panels to secure that side panel the F-100 and speaker box (four locations).

Install so that the speaker cable at the rear of the speaker box extends to the right side (the side where the F-100’s

[Power] switch is located).
