Operating Environment; Tools Required; Unpacking - Crown FM1000A User Manual

2.1 Operating Environment

You can install the FM1000A amplifier system in a standard 19–inch component
rack or on a suitable surface such as a bench or desk. In any case, the area should
be as clean and well-ventillated as possible. The power supply must be installed
directly above or below the power amplifier (for the included dressed cables to
reach their respective connectors).

2.2 Tools Required

To install the power supply and power amplifier, you will need the following tools:
Medium phillips screwdriver
Medium flat-blade screwdriver
Small flat-blade screwdriver
7/16–Inch wrench or nut driver
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection grounding strap and/or mat.

2.3 Unpacking

Before handling any exposed printed circuit boards, ground yourself with an
antistatic strap and/or mat.
Possible equipment damage!
Guard against electrostatic discharge
through electronic components.
The power amplifier, power supply, and two power amplifier modules are packed
and shipped in individual boxes because of their modular nature. (The FM1K
accessory kit is packed inside one of the two power amplifier module boxes.) For
added protection, both the PA1000 amplifier and PS1000 supply are packed in an
inner box and then placed inside an outer box with styrofoam protective corners in
both boxes. You will need to unpack a total of four boxes (plus two inner boxes).
Note: Save the boxes and packaging material that the individual
units are packed in should you need to return them for factory
service.
