    5. Install the appropriate fuse value from Table 2. NOTE: Use of fuses other than those listed in Table 2 will VOID THE WARRANTY. 6. If you connected the power transformer’s primary leads for 200-, 220-, or 240-volt operation, perform steps 7, 8, and 9 below to prevent future confusion and possible damage to the amplifier.
