PROCEDURE
(FOR GENERAL
EXPORT MODELS)
1. Always disconnect the power line cord before making these
adjustments.
2. Remove the top cover* of the deck by removing
the screws
from the sides.
3. Locate the voltage selector, shown in the illustration, to the
front of the power transformer.
4. Loosen the two screws in the shorting bar and move the bar
so that it shorts across the terminals marked with the required
voltage (100, 117, 220 or 240).

Decks sold in some
limited areas only have a wooden
case
which must be removed by the screws on the bottom of the

operation is permitted without power line frequency adaptation.
