  • Lower Wattage: The transformer tap is set at the factory for 200W use. To set it for lower wattage, remove the end of the + jumper wire that is connected to 200W and reattach it to the appropriate tap (100W, 50W, or 25W).

Note: Jumpers required for 70V/100V operation. For transformer bypass, remove jumpers from transformer settings and use 4-8Ω input.
