Precautions When Connecting

  • To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.
  • Once everything is properly connected, be sure to follow the procedure below to turn on their power. If you turn on equipment in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction or equipment failure. When powering up: Turn on the power to your guitar amp last. When powering down: Tun off the power to your guitar amp first.
  • Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

Use of Battery

  • The life of the included battery may be limited as its primary purpose was for testing during assembly.
  • If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and fluid leakage. Make sure that you carefully observe all of the items related to batteries that are listed in “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (Supplied on a separate sheet).
  • When operating on battery power only, the unit’s indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible.
  • Batteries should always be installed or replaced before connecting any other devices. This way, you can prevent malfunction and damage.
  • If operating this unit on battery, please use alkaline battery.

Changing the Battery

  1. Hold down the pedal and loosen the thumbscrew, then open the pedal upward. The pedal can be opened without detaching the thumbscrew completely.
  2.  Remove the old battery from the battery housing, and remove the snap cord connected to it.
  3. Connect the snap cord to the new battery, and place the battery inside the battery housing. Be sure to carefully observe the battery’s polarity (+ versus-).
  4. Slip the coil spring onto the spring base on the back of the pedal, and then close the pedal. Carefully avoid getting the snap cord caught in the pedal, coil spring, and battery housing.
  5. Finally, hold down the pedal while tightening the thumbscrew into the guide bush hole.
