NOTE:
Ensure replacement fuses bear identical ratings (refer to the table)!
19 Footswitch: Master A - B; Contour
1/4" stereo jack for double footswitches, executes the following functions:
1.Switching between the two Master volume controls A and B (mono terminal)
2.Contour switching (stereo terminal).
Please note:

21 F.X. Loop: Send
Signal output for the Effects loop. Connect this output to a signal processor’s
input/return jack via a shielded cable with 1/4" plugs.
22 F.X. Loop: Return
Signal input for the Effects loop. Connect this input to a signal processor’s
output/send jack via a shielded cable with 1/4" plugs.
23 Balance
FX mix control for the Effects loop: Rotate the knob to the DRY position for the pure amp
signal, i.e. no effect on the signal. Turn clockwise to blend in an effect connected to the loop
to the dry signal (parallel/passive). At the Effect position, only the wet signal, i.e. the signal
sent from the FX device is fed to the power amp (serial/passive).
NOTE:
If no effects processor is connected to this loop, leave this control in position DRY!
24 Poweramp Output: 4 Ohms parallel
4 ohms speaker output jacks, internal parallel signal path for the connection of one 4 ohms cabinet
or two 8 ohms speaker cabinets.
25 Poweramp Output: 8 Ohms parallel
8 ohms speaker output jacks, internal parallel signal path for the connection of one 8 ohms cabinet
or two 16 ohms speaker cabinets.
26 Poweramp Output: 16 Ohms
16 ohms speaker output jack, for the connection of one 16 ohms speaker cabinet.
NOTE: Never operate the amplifier without a sufficient load, otherwise you may
damage or destroy the power amp! Ensure your cabinet’s specifications match the
espective output’s specs.
Possible speaker cabinet options:
1 x 4z or 2 x 8z or 1 x 8z or 2 x 16z or 1 x 16z.

14 Master B - Hi Gain
Use this control (post FX Loop) to set the poweramp´s master volume when the preamp is in Hi-Gain mode.
