What me, read a manual?
Before you begin, please make sure you read the Safety Instructions on page 2 and Getting Started on
page 4.
Your new TAPCO
®
amplifier is designed to set up quickly and operate easily. We know it’s often seen as a
sign of weakness to read a manual, along with asking for directions when lost, but maybe you can read the
rest when nobody is looking.
It is important to keep your receipt in a safe place, and not a bad idea to write your product information
here for future reference (i.e., insurance claims, tech support, return authorization, etc.).

19. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause
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 period of time. The U.S. Government’s
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has
specified the permissible noise level exposures shown in the
following chart.
According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these
permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. 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 use hearing protectors while the equipment
is in operation. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or
over the ears must be worn when operating the equipment
in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in
excess of the limits set forth here.
