1. Important Safety Instructions
1. Water and Moisture – Do not use The FORCE near any source of water or in excessively moist
environments.
2. Object and Liquid Entry – Care should be taken so that objects do not fall, and liquids are not
spilled, into the enclosure through the openings.
3. Heat & Ventilation – When installing The FORCE in a rack or any other location, be sure there
is adequate ventilation. Improper ventilation will cause overheating, and can damage the unit.
The unit should be situated away from heat sources, or other equipment that produce heat. As
a general rule with tube equipment, it is wise to keep a 1U gap below and above if possible.
4. Power Sources – The FORCE has a universal power supply which can operate in any country. It
has an input voltage range of 90-260 VAC at 50/60 Hz.
5. Cleaning - The FORCE can be cleaned with just a damp cloth, or alcohol/methylated spirits for
more stubborn marks.
6. Damage - If after unpacking your FORCE there are signs of shipping damage, contact your
dealer.

Laboratories, Inc. The user should not attempt to service the unit beyond that described in the
operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
This unit has high voltages present, even after the power has been switched off.
8. DO NOT connect the AC supply cord until all other connections have been made. Afer initial
power up the power LED will “blink” for thirty seconds. The unit remains in MUTE until this
warm up period has elapsed.
