Care of Chassis & Face Plate

VAC chassis are aluminum for superior electromagnetic performance. The finish is a tough textured powder
coat paint. This finish is durable but can be scratched or chipped, just as that of a fine automobile may be
damaged. Cleaning with a damp cloth WHILE THE AMP IS SWITCHED OFF AND UNPLUGGED should suffice.
DO NOT use cleaning solutions containing harsh detergents or solvents.  They may damage the finish or
silkscreened lettering.

Tube Cages (Optional)

Perforated metal cages are planned as a future option to enclose the vacuum tubes. Mounting directions will
be supplied with the tube cage kit.
