Setting up the Basspower 600

To avoid electrical shock or any other damage, make sure that the
Basspower 600 and all other devices are switched off before you start
connecting them to the amplifi er!
Power Connections/Mains
Before connecting to a grounded power outlet,
make sure the power switches are in the off position
(facing down). The Basspower 600 is set up for 230 V
of line voltage. Once the amplifi er is plugged in, you
can get started!
Connecting an electric bass
The input jack on the left side of the frontpanel
receives your electric bass signal by means of a
shielded guitar cord with 1/4" mono style plug.
Make sure the master volume of the amplifi er is set
to the lowest position to avoid disturbing noise while
connecting.
Connecting loudspeakers
Due to the fact that the Basspower 600 does not
feature a built-in loudspeaker, you need to connect it
to an external loudspeaker cabinet before playing.
You should always attend that the impedance value
shown on the connected cabinets is identical with the
value written on the back of the amplifi er. The mini-
mum load for the Basspower 600 is 4 ohms, which
means that you will be able to connect one cabinet
with the value of 4 ohms or two cabinets with the
values of 8 ohms.
Travelling Abroad
If travelling to countries outside the EU, always check
their local voltage before operating the Basspower
600. Mismatched voltages can and most likely
will destroy your amplifi er. Should you encounter volta-
ges and frequencies other than those indicated, a trans-
former must be used between the power socket and
the Basspower 600. This transformer must be able
to transform the voltage and frequency to one
of the indicated settings.
WARNING!
Main Fuse
The main fuse is situated in a little drawer which is
part of the power input jack. This sliding fuse holder
also hides a spare fuse. For 230 V, the fuse must be
a 5A slow blow. It is crucially important to use the
specifi ed fuse values only.
Maintenance
All checkups and repairs must be undertaken by
authorized service personnel. With the right treat-
ment, the electric circuit and the power amp will not
need any kind of maintenance at all.
