005 CLASSIC SERIES AMPLIFIERS Thank you for purchasing a HIWATT product. A look inside the amplifier will reveal point-to-point hand wiring, turret tag boards (no printed circuits), and hand laced wiring harnesses. The power and output transformers are manufactured by Partridge, the original 1970’s supplier to the original design sheets. The components and wires are the modern available equivalents of the vintage components, 1-watt carbon resistors, and wound polyester capacitors being used throughout.

DO’s and DON’T’s • DO keep amplifier away from children. • DO unplug amplifier from socket if danger of lightning exists. • DO switch off all electric equipment before making connections. • DO avoid direct contact with tubes shortly after amplifier has been turned off. • DO always use the standby switch when switching on the amplifier. Switching on an amplifier with EL34 output valves without using the standby could seriously reduce the valve life.
