NOTE: Like tires on a car, spare tubes are always a measure of good insurance. Your DC-10 was carefully constructed with
reliability in mind! Given the proper care and maintenance, it will deliver years of trouble free service. However, any pro guitarist who
is out there gigging will tell you; spare tubes are a must for the fabled cord bag and may someday be worth their weight in gold. Spare
fuses are also a very easy way to insure an uninterrupted performance.

domestic U.S. version requires a 3 Amp Slo-Blo FUSE. A power tube short or failure is
often the cause of a blown FUSE...Follow the cold start procedure mentioned in the ON/
STANDBY section and watch the four 6L6 power tubes as you turn the STANDBY to the

ON position. If a power tube is going bad or is arcing you will see it! Flip the STANDBY

essary. If you see nothing abnormal as you lift the STANDBY, it is possible that a power
tube shorted temporarily and blew the FUSE. If this is the case, it may work again nor-
mally. To be extra safe you may want to replace all four power tubes in the "shotgun"
troubleshooting tradition and save the replaced set as spares.
This stereo jack enables you to hear the DC-10 through both sides of the headphones even though the
both channels.
Use the MASTER volume control located on the front panel in either channel depending on which
channel you are using at the time, to adjust the listening level. Keep in mind that the type and quality
of headphones that you are using, greatly affect the performance of this circuit, with the fully en-
closed - studio type producing the best results.
