HOW TO CONNECT THE LFSUPER60-212
Simply connect your guitar to the input socket via a 6.3mm jack and you’re
ready to play. To incorporate your effects pedalboard, plug the input and
output to the FX send/return sockets respectively.
The high quality speaker emulated DI out, with IRs preloaded, can be connected
to any balanced/unbalanced line level input device such as a PA or audio
interface to a DAW. Toggle the cabinet emulation off should you want to use
your own.
Page 5
Connect your backing track via the 3.5mm aux in from any media player device
such as a mobile phone. This will play out of the onboard loudspeaker along
with your guitar track. Alternatively, for silent practise, plug in a pair of
headphones to the 3.5mm phones out socket to have your guitar and backing
track play through them with the onboard loudspeaker muted. Additionally, the
phones out also includes cabinet emulation, following the IR emulation switch.
The two remote sockets on the LFSUPER60-212 can be connected to two FS-2 Minis
to allow for remote control of the reverb, effect select, boost and channel
select. The left socket should connect to an FS-2, where the jack’s tip signal
will toggle the reverb and the jack’s ring signal will switch the active
effect between tremolo and Spiral chorus. The right socket should connect to
an FS-2, where the jack’s tip signal will toggle the boost on/off and the
jack’s ring signal will switch between channel 1 and 2.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
In order to take full advantage of your new product and enjoy long and
trouble-free performance, please read this owner’s manual carefully, and keep
it in a safe place for future reference. 1) Unpacking: On unpacking your
product please check carefully for any signs of damage that may have occurred
whilst in transit from the
Laney factory to your dealer. In the unlikely event that there has been
damage, please re-pack your unit in its original carton and consult your
dealer. We strongly advise you to keep your original transit carton, since in
the unlikely event that your unit should develop a fault, you will be able to
return it to you dealer for rectification securely packed. 2) Amplifier
Connection: In order to avoid damage, Generally it is advisable to establish
and follow a pattern for turning on and off your system. With all system parts
connected, turn on source equipment, mixers, effects processors etc, BEFORE
turning on your amplifier. Many products have large transient surges at turn
on and off which can cause damage to your speakers. By turning on your
amplifier LAST and making sure its level control is set to a minimum, any
transients from other equipment should not reach your loud speakers. Wait till
all system parts have stabilised, usually a couple of seconds. Similarly when
turning off your system always turn down the level controls on your amplifier
and then turn off its power before turning off other equipment. 3) Cables:
Never use shielded or microphone cable for any speaker connections as this
will not be substantial enough to handle the amplifier load and could cause
damage to your complete system. Use good quality shielded cables everywhere
else. 4) Servicing: The user should not attempt to service these products.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. 5) Heed all warnings. 6)
Follow all instructions. 7) Do not use this apparatus near water. 8) Clean
only with a dry cloth. 9) Do not block any of the ventilation openings.
Install in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. 10) Do not install
near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 11) An apparatus with
Class I construction shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a
protective connection. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the
other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The
wide blade or third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug
does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the
obsolete outlet. 12) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched,
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point they exit from
the apparatus. 13) Only use attachments/accessories provided by the
manufacturer. 14) Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is
used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury
from tip-over. 15) The mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the
disconnect device and shall remain readily operable. The user should allow
easy access to any mains plug, mains coupler and mains switch used in
conjunction with this unit thus making it readily operable. Unplug this
apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. 16)
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when
the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as when power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped. 17) Never break off the ground pin.
Connect only to a power supply of the type marked on the unit adjacent to the
power supply cord. 18) If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack,
rear support should be provided. 19) Note for UK only: If the colours of the
wires in the mains lead of this unit do not correspond with the terminals in
your plug, proceed as follows:
o The wire that is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal
that is marked by the letter E, the earth symbol, coloured green or coloured
green and yellow.
o The wire that is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal that is
marked with the letter N or the colour black. o The wire that is coloured
brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L or
the colour red. 20) This electrical apparatus should not be exposed to
dripping or splashing and care should be taken not to place objects containing
liquids, such as vases, upon the apparatus. 21) Exposure to extremely high
noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably
in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose
some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time.
The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has
specified the following permissible noise level exposures: According to OSHA,
any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some
hearing loss. Earplugs or protectors to the ear canals or over the ears must
be worn when operating this amplification system in order to prevent a
permanent hearing loss, if exposure is in excess of the limits as set forth
above. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure
levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of
producing high sound pressure levels such as this amplification system be
protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in operation. 22) If your
appliance features a tilting mechanism or a kickback style cabinet, please use
this design feature with caution. Due to the ease with which the amplifier can
be moved between straight and tilted back positions, only use the amplifier on
a level, stable surface. DO NOT operate the amplifier on a desk, table, shelf
or otherwise unsuitable non-stable platform. 23) Symbols & nomenclature used
on the product and in the product manuals, intended to alert the operator to
areas where extra caution may be necessary, are as follows:
