Installation
The MEN220 can be placed upright on a table or
shelf, standing on its four feet. It also can be custom
installed in a piece of furniture or cabinet of your
choice. The four feet may be removed from the bottom
of the MEN220 when it is custom installed as out-
lined below. The four feet together with the mounting
screws should be retained for possible future use if the
MEN220 is removed from the custom installation and
used free standing. The required panel cutout, ventila-
tion cutout and unit dimensions are shown.
Always provide adequate ventilation for your
MEN220. Cool operation ensures the longest possible
operating life for any electronic instrument. Do not
install the MEN220 directly above a heat generat-
ing component such as a high powered amplifier. If
all the components are installed in a single cabinet, a
quiet running ventilation fan can be a definite asset in
maintaining all the system components at the coolest
possible operating temperature.
When the MEN220 is placed free-standing on a
flat surface, allow at least 2 inches (5.08cm) above the
top, 2 inches (5.08cm) below the bottom and 2 inches
(5.08cm) on each side of the MEN220, so airflow is
not obstructed. Allow 19-1/2 inches (49.53cm) depth
behind the front panel. Allow 1-7/16 inch (3.66cm) in
front of the mounting panel for knob clearance.
A custom cabinet installation should provide the
minimum spacing dimensions for cool operation. Al-
low at least 2 inches (5.08cm) above the top, 2 inches
(5.08cm) below the bottom and 2 inches (5.08cm) on
each side of the MEN220, so airflow is not obstructed.
The Custom Cabinet should be open backed and at
least 12 inches (30.48cm) away from any surface such
as a wall. Be sure to cut out a ventilation hole in the
mounting shelf according to the dimensions in the
drawing. Allow 1-7/16 inch (3.66cm) in front of the
mounting panel for knob clearance.
