19. TRANSISTOR PROTECTION
The S. E. P. P. O.
T. L.
system is used to protect the output circuitry of the M-9, (M-9DX) main amplifiers. The output impedance
should be 8 ohms.
If a speaker of Jess than 8 ohms impedance is used or if the speaker terminais are accidentally shorted, the
protector fuse will blow to protect the transistors.
Transistors are easily damaged by excessive Joad or high ambient temperatures.
If the protector fuse has blown, the sound may be distorted or there may be no sound at ali.
The protector fuse may be replaced
with special 1.0 A fuse.
