20. CROSSFADER REPLACEMENT
The crossfader is “Hot Swappable” which means it
may be replaced at any time, even when power is
applied.
Only replace with American Audio Part Feather
Fader Plus. Replacing with any other model fader
may seriously damage your mixer.
Please, always use insulated tools.
20.1 REPLACING HOW-TO
Disconnect the mixers main power supply
Using a Phillips screw driver, unscrew the two outside screws on each side that hold the
cross fader assembly in place.
Gently remove the crossfader assembly from its seated position. You may need to
wiggle the crossfader slightly to remove it.
After removing the crossfader assembly, disconnect the ribbon cable that attaches the
cross fader to the PC board. Grasp the crossfader by its base and pull the ribbon cable
by its connector not the actual cables. The connector is designed to only fit one way, so
don’t worry about the connectors’ orientation.
Unscrew the two inner screws that connect the crossfader to the crossfader plate.
Connect the new crossfader to the ribbon cable and replace in reverse order.
