Directions

Note: Glass Fuses

Replacing the fuse is necessary if the power inlet has a fuse of the wrong capacity (or lacks one entirely).

This guide can help get you started. Consult with a professional if uncertain what capacity fuse you should use.

1) Insert the rocker switch into the Power Switch Protector with "ON" facing up. The flaps on the switch compress during insertion, then snap in place to hold it.

2) Insert the rocker switch and protector into the open slot on the front base.

3) Remove the fuse cover by sliding it out. Remove the fuse in the holder.

4) Insert the new fuse into the holder and replace the cover. Direction of the fuse does not matter.

5) Slide the IEC socket into the rear of the base.

6) Secure the IEC socket with two (2) M3 x 6mm screws.
