Oluline ohutusteave

• Lugege kõiki juhiseid: Enne seadme kasutamist amplifier, thoroughly read and understand all safety and operating instructions.
• Säilitage juhised: Hoidke see juhend edaspidiseks kasutamiseks alles.
• Pange tähele hoiatusi: Always follow all warnings on the amplifier and in this manual.
• Vesi ja niiskus: Do not use this apparatus near water or expose it to dripping or splashing liquids.
• Kuumus: Ärge paigaldage soojusallikate, näiteks radiaatorite, küttekehade, ahjude või muude seadmete (sh amptõsteseadmed), mis toodavad soojust.
• Toiteallikad: Connect only to a power supply of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the apparatus.
• Toitejuhtme kaitse: Kaitske toitejuhet selle peale kõndimise või muljumise eest, eriti pistikute, pistikupesade ja nende seadmest väljumise kohta.
• Puhastamine: Puhastage ainult kuiva lapiga.
• Teenindus: Andke kõik hooldustööd kvalifitseeritud teeninduspersonalile. Hooldus on vajalik, kui seade on mingil viisil kahjustatud, nt toitejuhe või pistik on kahjustatud, vedelikku või seadmesse on kukkunud esemeid, seade on sattunud vihma või niiskuse kätte, ei tööta normaalselt või on maha kukkunud.

Seadistamine

1. Füüsiline paigutus

Asetage amplifier head on a stable, level surface, ensuring adequate ventilation around the unit. Avoid placing it directly on top of other heat-generating equipment or in enclosed spaces.

2. Kõlarite ühendamine

Ühendage amplifier to a speaker cabinet using a high-quality speaker cable. Ensure the impedance of your speaker cabinet matches the selected impedance setting on the amplifier (4, 8, or 16 Ohms). Mismatched impedance can damage the ampelujõulisem.

Joonis 1: Esiosa view of the EVH 5150 III 50-Watt Tube Head, showing control knobs and dimensions. The head measures 28 inches wide, 16 inches high, and 14.5 inches deep.

3. Toite ühendamine

Plug the supplied power cable into the amplifier's AC inlet and then into a grounded power outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position before connecting.

4. Connecting Instruments and Footswitch

Connect your guitar to the "INPUT" jack on the front panel. For remote channel switching and boost control, connect the supplied footswitch to the dedicated footswitch input on the rear panel.

Kasutusjuhised

1. Toite sisse / välja lülitamine

• Toide sisse: Flip the POWER switch to ON. Wait approximately 30-60 seconds for the tubes to warm up, then flip the STANDBY switch to ON. The indicator light will illuminate.
• Toide välja: Flip the STANDBY switch to OFF first, then after a few seconds, flip the POWER switch to OFF.

2. Channel Selection and Controls

The 5150 III features three channels: Clean (Channel 1), Crunch (Channel 2), and Lead (Channel 3). Channels 1 and 2 share EQ controls, while Channel 3 has independent EQ.

• Channel 1 (Clean): Provides pristine clean tones. Use the GAIN 1/2 and VOLUME 1/2 knobs to adjust the input sensitivity and output level.
• Channel 2 (Crunch): Offers classic overdrive and crunch tones. Activated via the footswitch or front panel. Shares GAIN 1/2 and VOLUME 1/2 with Channel 1.
• Channel 3 (Lead): Delivers high-gain distortion. Features independent GAIN 3 and VOLUME 3 controls, along with dedicated LOW, MID, and HIGH EQ knobs.
• EQ Controls (Low, Mid, High): Adjust the tonal characteristics of your sound. Channels 1 and 2 share these, while Channel 3 has its own set.
• Kohalolek: Adds high-end sparkle and cut to the overall sound.
• Resonants: Controls the low-end response and tightness of the ampelujõulisem.
• Reverb: Adjusts the amount of built-in digital reverb.

3. Power Level Attenuator

The amplifier includes a power level attenuator, allowing you to select between full power and quarter power output. This is useful for achieving cranked-amp tones at lower volumes.

4. Võimendusfunktsioon

The footswitch includes a BOOST button to provide an additional volume or gain boost for solos or emphasis. The amount of boost can be adjusted.

5. Müravärav

A built-in noise gate is available, primarily effective on Channel 3 (Lead) to reduce unwanted hiss or feedback at high gain settings.

6. Effects Loop

The amplifier features a series effects loop (SEND and RETURN jacks) for integrating external effects pedals after the preamp osa.

7. XLR Speaker Emulation Out

An XLR output with speaker emulation allows direct connection to a PA system or recording interface, providing a consistent, mic'd cabinet sound without needing a microphone.

8. Vaigistusfunktsioon

A mute function is available to silence the speaker output, useful for silent recording or stage changes while keeping the amplifier powered on.

Hooldus

• Puhastamine: Kasutage seadme välispinna puhastamiseks pehmet kuiva lappi amplifier. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Toru vahetus: Vacuum tubes have a finite lifespan. If you notice a decrease in performance, unusual noise, or red-plating, consult a qualified technician for tube inspection and replacement. Always replace tubes with matched sets of the correct type.
• Hoiustamine: Kui seadet pikemat aega ei kasutata, pange see hoiule ampHoida jahedas ja kuivas kohas, eemal otsesest päikesevalgusest ja äärmuslikest temperatuuridest.

Veaotsing

• Heli puudub:
  • Check all cable connections (power, speaker, instrument).
  • Ensure the POWER and STANDBY switches are in the ON position.
  • Verify speaker cabinet impedance matches amptõsteseadme seadistus.
  • Testi teise instrumendikaabli või kitarriga.
• Poor Sound Quality/Unusual Noise:
  • Kontrollige lahtiste ühenduste või kahjustatud kaablite olemasolu.
  • Inspect vacuum tubes for signs of failure (e.g., microphonics, red-plating).
  • Tagada seadme korralik maandus amptõsteseade ja muud seadmed.
  • Adjust EQ, Presence, and Resonance controls.
• Footswitch Not Working:
  • Ensure the footswitch cable is securely connected.
  • Test the footswitch with another compatible device if possible.

If problems persist, contact qualified service personnel. Do not attempt to service the amppäästja ise.
