control the amount or intensity of the effects signal via the FX-
MIX knob. Hard left = dry (preamp signal only) / hard right =
wet (effects signal only).
CONNECTING EFFECTS DEVICES:
Connect the FX SEND jack to the input and the FX RETURN
jack to the output of your effects device.
Use only high-quality patch cords to prevent signal loss,
background noise and drop-outs.
Ensure that the effect device is not being overdriven. Be sure
to keep an eye on whatever type of level meter, gain indi-
cator or overload lamp the effects device has, and adjust its
input and output controls accordingly.

You can use the BALANCED DI OUT port to connect the
MONTANA to a mixer.
5.0 SERVICE AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
The MONTANA does not require any type of regular
maintenance. However, there are a few precautions you
should heed because they will significantly extend the life of
your amp:
Make sure all peripheral devices, cords and cables are in a
state of good repair!
Make sure plenty of air can circulate around your amp's
ventilation ducts located at the top rear of the amp's
housing at all times.
Definitely avoid exposure to mechanical shocks, extreme
heat, dust, and especially moisture.
Be careful about the kind of peripheral devices you connect
to your amp and always check out their specs before you
plug them in. Under no circumstances should you connect
devices with high output signal levels (e.g. power amps)
directly to your amp's input.
Be sure the AC power source delivers the current that your
amp is designed to handle before you plug it in. When in
doubt about the local rating, ask the venue's sound
technician or a stage hand.
Refrain from Do-It-Yourself repairs! To be on the safe side, you
should also have a qualified technician replace internal
fuses.
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to clean the exterior surfaces of
the MONTANA.
