TKO 115 - Bass Amplifier PEAVEY - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL TKO 115 PEAVEY

Intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

Intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

CAUTION: Risk of electrical shock - DO NOT OPEN!

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

WARNING: To prevent electrical shock or fire hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. Before using this appliance, read the operating guide for further warnings.

Used for most electric basses. It is 6 dB louder than the Low Gain Input.

LOW GAIN INPUT (2)

Provided for instruments that have extremely high outputs, which can result in overdriving (distorting) the High Gain Input. If both inputs are used simultaneously, the output levels are the same (both are High Gain).

PRE GAIN (3)

Controls the input gain of the preamplifier.

BRIGHT SWITCH (4)

Provides a preset boost (+10dB) to treble frequencies. To activate, depress the switch to its "in" position.

CONTOUR SWITCH (5)

Defeats the preset special EQ curve when pushed in.

LOW FREQUENCY EQ (6)

An active tone control (shelving type, ± 15 dB) that varies the low frequency boost or cut.

OPERATION NOTE: Excessive EQ boost, especially of the low frequencies, increases the possibility of speaker damage, and sacrifices valuable headroom.

HIGH EQ CONTROL (7)

An active tone control (shelving type, ± 15 dB) that varies the high frequency boost or cut.

GRAPHIC SELECT (8)

The "in" position of this switch routes the instrument signal through the 7-band equalizer. The "out" position removes the graphic equalizer from the signal path.

GRAPHIC EQUALIZER (9)

This seven-band, one octave equalizer provides ± 15 dB of boost or cut at each center frequency.

MASTER VOLUME (10)

Controls the overall volume level of the amplifier. The final level adjustment should be made after the desired sound has been achieved.

CHORUS/EFFECTS SEND (11)

High pass output above 200Hz for supplying signals to external effects or signal processing equipment.

EFFECTS RETURN (12)

Provided for patching an effects device output back into the mixer. May also be used as an independently variable auxiliary input.

PREAMPOUT/POWER AMP IN (13)

These jacks are provided for in-line patching of effects devices. To patch an effects unit, connect the Preamp Output to the Input of the device. Next, connect the output of the device to the Power Amp Input (high-quality shielded cables must be used for these connections). The Preamp Output can also be used to route the amplified signal to a mixing console, tape recorder, etc. Connect the Preamp Output, using a shielded cable, to an input of the tape recorder, mixer, etc. This patch does not affect the operation of the amplifier.

NOTE: The preamp output level is approximately 1 volt RMS and is of relatively low impedance (600 ohms). Any effects device used in this effects loop must be capable of receiving 1 volt input and providing 1 volt output in order to properly drive the power amp. The Power Amp Input has an internal switch which disconnects the internal preamp.

HEADPHONE JACK (14)

This stereo jack allows signal to flow to both sides of any stereo headset.

POWERLED(15)

Illuminates when AC power is being supplied to the amp.

POWER SWITCH (16)

Depress to "On" position to turn on.

LINE (MAINS) CORD RETAINERS (17)

Allow storage of mains cable for travel.

GROUND SWITCH (18)

Three position rocker-type switch which, in most applications, should be operated in its center or zero position. There may be some situations when audible hum and/or noise will come from the loudspeaker. If this situation arises, position the ground switch to either positive or negative (+ or -) or until the noise is minimized.

NOTE: Should the noise problem continue, consult your Authorized Peavey Dealer, the Peavey Factory, or a qualified service technician. THE GROUND SWITCH IS NOT FUNCTIONAL ON 220/240 VOLT MODELS.

LINE CORD (120 V PRODUCTS ONLY) (19)

For your safety, we have incorporated a three-wire line (mains) cable with proper grounding facilities. It is not advisable to remove the ground pin under any circumstances. If it is necessary to use the equipment without proper grounding facilities, suitable grounding adaptors should be used. Less noise and greatly reduced shock hazard exists when the unit is operated with the proper grounded receptacles.

5. This product should not be used near water, i.e., a bathtub, sink, swimming pool, wet basement, etc.
6. This product should be located so that its position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. It should not be placed flat against a wall or placed in a built-in enclosure that will impede the flow of cooling air.
7. This product should not be placed near a source of heat such as a stove, radiator, or another heat producing amplifier.
8. Connect only to a power supply of the type marked on the unit adjacent to the power supply cord.
9. Never break off the ground pin on the power supply cord. For more information on grounding, write for our free booklet "Shock Hazard and Grounding."
10. Power supply cords should always be handled carefully. Never walk or place equipment on power supply cords. Periodically check cords for cuts or signs of stress, especially at the plug and the point where the cord exits the unit.
11. The power supply cord should be unplugged when the unit is to be unused for long periods of time.
12. If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack, rear support should be provided.
13. Metal parts can be cleaned with a damp rag. The vinyl covering used on some units can be cleaned with a damp rag or an ammonia-based household cleaner if necessary. Disconnect unit from power supply before cleaning.
14. Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the unit through the ventilation holes or any other openings.
15. This unit should be checked by a qualified service technician if:

a. The power supply cord or plug has been damaged.

1. The user should not attempt to service this equipment. All service work should be done by a qualified service technician.
2. This product should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by Peavey Electronics.
3. 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.

Duration Per Day In Hours

According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. Ear plugs or protectors in 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.
