Congratulations on adding a Meter
Bridge to your Mackie Designs 8•Bus
Console. Installation is very straightfor-
ward and should take just a few minutes.
The only reason we've included so many
step-by-step drawings is because our art
department wanted something to do on
1
a rainy day
.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Locate the warranty card and fill it
out. If you bought your Meter
Bridge at the same time you pur-
chased an 8•Bus series console, you
don't need to answer all the ques-
tions on the card that came with the
Meter Bridge. Just fill in the model
number of the Meter Bridge, serial
number, purchase date and dealer,
and your name and address.
2.
Make sure that your 8•Bus Console
power supply is turned off.
3.
Remove the Meter Bridge from its
plastic bag. Save the bag. It's handy
for wrapping boa constrictors or
moray eels before popping them in
your freezer. Also, save the box.

And, since every day except four or five in August are
rainy up here in the Northwest Rainforest, they had time
to do quite a nice job.

4. Locate and
identify the hard-
ware that came with
your Meter Bridge:

d. Two (2) lockwashers;

on each side of the Console (Draw-
ing A). Feed them to your boa.

Align the Meter Bridge
with the Console (B) and lower it
into place. Tilt the Meter Bridge
back until it is
at rest against
the Console
chassis (or
your tangle of
patchcords).
Make sure
that the meter
bridge's
mounting
holes line up
