UNPACKING THE METIS PREPREAMPLIFIER
Tools required:  none
WARNING - This prepreamplifier uses voltages that could cause
injury or death. Never open the preamplifier while it is plugged in, and
always wait at least one hour after turning the unit off to unplug and
open the unit.  Lethal
 voltages can remain in the electronics after the

The METIS preamplifier has been painstakingly inspected for cosmetic flaws
during and after assembly.  In order not to damage the cosmetic appearance of
your preamplifier it is important that you follow the unpacking instructions
carefully.
1.  Remove the small corrugated box containing the tubes, tube cage, and power
cord.
2.  Carefully lift the preamplifier out of the box, and remove the foam pads and
plastic bag.
3.  Insert the tubes into their sockets.  See figure 1. Place the tube cage over the
tubes and into the corresponding holes of the cover, if so desired.
4.  Save the packing materials. The packing materials and box have been
carefully designed to protect your valuable equipment during shipping so you
don’t want to throw them away.
