Getting Started - Fishman SoloAmp User Manual

Getting Started

Here are some basic setup tips to help get you going. To operate your
SoloAmp safely, please read the entire manual, especially the Important Safety
Instructions on page 2.
Setting the SoloAmp on its Stand
SoloAmp is intended for use with the included tripod speaker stand. The
system is designed for use in portable applications where the amplifier and
stand are to be placed directly on a level, solid, flat surface. Do not substitute
the speaker stand with a non-Fishman part or attempt to mount or suspend the
SoloAmp in a permanent or temporary method other than that as described in
this guide or by Fishman.
1. Locate the stand in a place that is free of obstructions, where it may be
accidentally pushed over, or where it may be a trip hazard.
2. Loosen the lower of the two large thumbscrews and spread the tripod legs.
Follow the height warnings printed on the stand for safe operation
(Figure 1). Setting the height outside this area is forbidden.
Tighten the thumbscrew before placing the SoloAmp on the stand.
3. Remove the safety pin and loosen the top large thumbscrews. Extend the
top tube to the third hole or lower if you are seated while performing.
Replace the safety pin. Allow the tube to rest on this pin and tighten the
top thumbscrew (Figure 2).
4. Lift the SoloAmp using the handle on the back of the unit while supporting
the weight with your other hand. A guide is molded into the underside
of the SoloAmp and acts as an aid in positioning the SoloAmp onto the
tripod. Once positioned, lower the SoloAmp onto the tripod until it rests
firmly on the tube.
