FUSE:

This is the A.C. Mains Fuse for the M3 CARBINE. REPLACE ONLY WITH A SLO-BLO TYPE FUSE OF THE PROPER
RATING. THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT, AS THE M3 CARBINE DRAWS A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF CURRENT AT HIGH
OUTPUT LEVEL SETTINGS.

downs after the gig a snap. It also makes de-racking much easier when you wish to remove the unit from a hardwired rack system
where all the A.C. cords have been cable-tied in. Additional heavy duty cords are available should you ever need
one...simply call us and we can ship one directly to you for a nominal charge, plus shipping cost. Make sure the A.C.
cord is firmly in its socket (receptacle) before powering up the amplifier.
NOTE: NEVER ALTER THE THREE PRONG POWER CORD IN ANY WAY.

MUTE SWITCH:

This ¼" jack is provided to allow control of the Front Panel Tuner MUTE from a master switching device. In this
scenario, all sounds and features are controlled from one source and usually these commands are stored in the master switcher
under programs (usually midi) that can be recalled with one footswitch keystroke.
The M3 CARBINE Function jack responds to simple grounding type (tip-to-ground) latching (not momentary)
logic and most switchers on the market offer several jacks that can be dedicated to this type of logic.
To trigger the Tuner MUTE feature: simply connect an unshielded ¼" cable to the MUTE Function Switch jack
and ground the tip to the ring of the opposing end of the cable with either a master switcher or a latching type
(not momentary) grounding footswitch.
NOTE: The Front Panel PULL MUTE feature overrides the Function Switch jack. Once MUTE is engaged on
the Front Panel by pulling the MASTER control out, MUTE can not be defeated via the Rear Panel Switch jacks.
The removable "Euro" Style" A.C. cord that is supplied with the M3 CARBINE makes set-ups and tear-
