you know you will not be using battery power for an extended period—for example, if you are mounting the unit to your pedal board permanently
- it is wise to remove the battery to avoid possible damage from long-term battery corrosion.
This unit can operate on either a 9-Volt battery or a standard 9-Volt “wall-wart” DC power supply. The unit is shipped from the Factory with a
long-life 9-Volt Battery to facilitate easier trial demonstration in a music store environment.
NOTE: The internal battery is switched to an “ON” state (drawing current and supplying voltage) by a switching element in the INPUT jack.
Disconnect the cable from the ¼” INPUT jack whenever the unit is not in use to prolong battery life.
To access the 9-Volt battery for inspection, replacement or removal; make sure the External Power jack is disconnected, remove the four Phil-
lips- head screws from the four corners of the bottom lid and remove it, note the orientation/direction of the battery and terminals—and remove
it. Replace if necessary.
NOTE: Any type of 9-Volt battery will work in this device if it is fully charged and functional. Carbon Zinc, Alkaline or even Nickel Cadmium
Rechargeable type batteries are all acceptable replacements. Some pedal aficionados prefer the “sweetness” they claim to hear from standard
Carbon Zinc type batteries, but you will have to decide what type best serves your needs.
