Safety instructions

Intended use

This product is meant to be used as a multiple power supply for eects pedals. Any

other use or use under other operating conditions is considered to be improper and

may result in personal injury or property damage. No liability will be assumed for

damages resulting from improper use.

Danger for children

Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are disposed of properly and are

not within reach of babies and young children. Choking hazard! Ensure

that children do not detach any small parts from the product. They could

swallow the pieces and choke! Never let children unattended use electri-

cal devices.

Possible staining

The plasticiser contained in the rubber feet of this product may possibly

react with the coating of your surface and after some time cause perma-

nent dark stains. In case of doubt, do not put the rubber feet directly on

the surface and use a suitable underlay if necessary, i.e. felt-pad oor pro-

tectors or similar.

Where to use the product

Never use the product

• in conditions of extreme temperature or humidity

• in extremely dusty or dirty areas

• at locations where the unit can become wet

General handling

• To prevent damage, never use force when handling the product.

• Never immerse the product in water. Just wipe it with a clean dry cloth. Do not use

liquid cleaners such as benzene, thinners or ammable cleaning agents.

Incorrect handling of lithium batteries can result in injury

• In the event of a short circuit, overheating or mechanical damage, lithium batteries

can cause severe injuries.

• When handled correctly and appropriately lithium batteries pose no risk.

• Store lithium batteries in a cool, dry place, ideally in the original packaging.

• Store lithium batteries away from heat sources (e.g. radiators or sunlight). Lithium

batteries are hermetically sealed. Never attempt to open a lithium battery.

• If the battery housing is damaged small amounts of the electrolyte may leak out. If

this should happen, seal the lithium battery in airtight packaging and wipe up the

traces of electrolyte using absorbent paper towels. You must wear protective rub-

ber gloves when doing so. Clean your hands and the aected surface thoroughly

with cold water.

• Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable lithium batteries. When charging lith-

ium batteries you must use a suitable charging device intended for the purpose.

• Before disposing of the device remove the lithium batteries. Protect used lithium

batteries against potential short circuits, e.g. by covering the poles with adhesive

tape.

• Only use powder extinguishers or other suitable extinguishing agents to extinguish

a burning lithium battery.

Spaceship PowerBar 40-B

Using the product

1. Use the supplied power adapter to connect the device to the power and press

the mains switch to switch on the device.

2. Use a suitable voltage supply cable to connect eects pedals or similar devices

which require 24V supply voltage at a maximum of 2000mA to the output1.

3. Use a suitable voltage supply cable to connect devices with high power

consumption (i.e. multi-eect devices) which require 9V supply voltage at

a maximum of 3000mA to the output2.

4. Use suitable voltage supply cables to connect eects pedals or similar devices

which require 9V supply voltage at a maximum of 250mA to the

outputs34.

5. Use suitable voltage supply cables to connect eects pedals or similar devices

which require 9V supply voltage at a maximum of 500mA to the

outputs57.

Danger of property damage by polarity reversal

Make sure that the polarity of the devices to be connected must be

the same as the polarity of the power supply outputs ( ). To

power a device with polarity-reversed voltage may damage it!

6. Use suitable voltage supply cables to connect eects pedals or similar devices

which require 9V ,12V or 18V supply voltage at a maximum of

500 mA, 375 mA or 250 mA to the outputs8-9. Set the associated switch

above the output to the position of the required voltage. The maximum output

power of 31.5 W must not be exceeded.

7. Use suitable voltage supply cables to connect devices as smartphones or

tablets to the USB outputs.

8. Each operational output 1-9 is indicated by a green LED. If an output is switched

o due to overload, the LED turns o. Then disconnect the respective pedal

from the device. After approx. 2 seconds, the normal voltage supply is restored

here.

9. Press the mains switch to switch o the device.

Danger of property damage by overvoltage

Make sure that connected devices are actually suitable for the set

voltage. To power a device with overvoltage may damage it!
