Introduction
This Harley Benton ‘Compressor’ pedal has been specically
engineered for low noise and super long sustain without tone
compromise. Unlike other compression pedals that can aect
your tone and ‘fuzzes’ as the signal decays, this Compressor
pedal will ring on and on.
You can power this device by an external DC9V power adap-
tor or a 9V alkaline battery. If you don‘t use this pedal for a
longer period of time take out the battery to avoid leakage.
Disconnect the input cable from the pedal when you don‘t use
the device. This disconnects the battery from the circuitry and
thus saves its capacity.
This device is intended to be used to reduce the dynamic range of a electric
guitar signal. Any other use or use under other operating conditions is consid-
ered to be improper and may result in personal injury or property damage. No
liability will be assumed for damages resulting from improper use.
Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are properly disposed of and
are not in the reach of babies and young children. Choking hazard!
Ensure that children do not detach any small parts (e.g. knobs or the
like) from the product. They could swallow the pieces and choke! Never let chil-
dren use electrical devices unattended.
For the transport and protective packaging, environmentally friendly
materials have been chosen that can be supplied to normal recycling.
